Newspaper Article with Headline Reading: 'Jim & Amy Mollison Crash-land in U.S.A.- New York Reception After Atlantic Flight’, 1933. 'Jim and Amy Mollison made a triumphant landing at the New York Aerodrome last night, twenty hours after their gallant little monoplane Seafarer, having conquered the Atlantic, crashed at Bridgeport, Connecticut'. On 22 July 1933, British aviators Jim Mollison and Amy Johnson took off from South Wales on a non-stop flight to New York, but were forced to crash land, just short of their target, after running out of fuel. They were both injured, and the plane broken apart by souvenir seekers. Cheering crowds welcomed them at a ticker-tape parade on Broadway. From "Time To Remember - The Time Of The Monster", 1933 (Reel 2); documentary film about events of 1933, rise of Roosevelt and Hitler.
