Aviator's visit

The Weller Studio took this photo of Clarence Chamberlin on his appearance in Washington, Pa., April 13, 1928. He most likely landed his plane at the fairgrounds.

Chamberlin was the second person – after Lindbergh – to fly across the Atlantic, leaving from Long Island, N.Y., and arriving in Germany 42 hours later, 43 miles short of intended destination of Berlin. His plane carried a navigator, thus making him the first to fly a passenger across the ocean.
