Aviation Byrd Richard Clarence Duncan Chamberlin; Charles Albert Levine
Hotel de Ville de Paris. Reception de Clarence Duncan Chamberlin & Charles Albert Levine du Commandant Richard E. Byrd et de ses Compagnons de Voyage. Sale des Fetes Jeudi Juillet 1927
Paris 1927. Ephemera. Otherwise very good condition. The program card for a reception for these aviation pioneers given in Paris on July 7th 1927. 1927 was a banner year for transatlantic flights. The prize was the Orteig Prize a $25000 reward offered on May 22 1919 by New York hotel owner Raymond Orteig. Clarence Chamberlin Charles Lindbergh and Richard Byrd were all in pursuit of the prize and aviation glory. Chamberlin was positioned to be the first after completing a long distance flight with copilot Acosta. They were supported by Charles A. Levine a wealthy millionaire salvage dealer. When Levine made several changes to the copilot position an injunction prevented Chamberlin from taking off give Lindbergh the window to beat him in the New York to Paris flight landing May 21 1927. On June 4 1927 Chamberlin was ready to begin his historic flight; however the plane still lacked a navigator/copilot. "Literally minutes before the plane was to take off Levine who had been at the airfield made "as if to close the cabin door but instead suddenly climbed in to occupy the second seat. and without a single word of explanation either to his wife or to officials on the airfield Levine gave the order for departure." Thus Chamberlin and the first transatlantic passenger Levine took off into the history books." Wikipedia Byrd had become a national hero after purportedly flying over the North Pole in May 1926. In May 1927 Byrd's plane crashed severely injured Floyd Bennett his chief pilot and slightly injuring Byrd. As the plane was being repaired and his arm mending Lindbergh succeeded in flying across the Atlantic landing May 21. Byrd eventually flew on June 29th. Cloud cover prevented them from landing in Paris and the eventually crash landed on the coast of Normandy on July 1 1927. In France Byrd and his crew were received as heroes and Byrd was invested as an Officer of the French Legion of Honor by Prime Minister Raymond Poincare on July 6. This reception occurs the following day. The chef is M. Pierre Dupont Sous-chef M. F. Foret. The musical program includes La Freischutz by Weber; Ballet de Javotte by Saint-Saens; Tarass-Boulba by A. Georges and Over There by "Cohan" being George M. Cohan. 4 5/8 x 6 3/4" printed in blue on white card. One corner slightly bumped. A rare survival of aviation history. <br/><br/> unknown

Clean and unmarked gray wraps with red and blue titles whisper of wear to extremities tight & solid square no creases. Pages lightly toned very clean no markings of any kind.

Industry competition subverts the choice of airlines to operate above legal minimums as they long had done. John Nance suggests that the entire industry--designers manufacturers mechanics and the people they work for and the headsof FAA--needs to be alerted to the role of human factors and human performance in most safety problerms. He outlines a viable course of action for Congress the FAA and the airline industry. 416 pages with index. 5.75 x 9 inches. 1987 William Morrow & Co New York New York USA William Morrow & Co paperback
