Answer 3

Your Grandmom may not remember this since she was 8 years old, but you must include Wrong Way Corrigan's flight.

1938 - "Wrong Way" Corrigan, an American, flew from Brooklyn to Ireland, even though he was supposed to be flying to California. He claimed that his unauthorized flight was due to a navigational error, that he misread his compass. He had been refused permission to make a nonstop flight from New York to Ireland, so his "navigational error" was a protest against government red tape. He never publicly acknowledged having flown to Ireland intentionally.
