Wrong Way !!!



Happy 90th Anniversary of Wrong Way Corrigan Day !



Wrong Way Corrigan Day commemorates July 17, 1938 when Douglas Corrigan made a transatlantic flight.



He had recently purchased a 1929 Curtiss Robin plane and rebuilt and modified it. In July of 1938, he flew it from California to New York. He then applied for permission to make a transatlantic flight but was denied.



On July 17, 1938, he flew out of Floyd Bennett field Brooklyn, New York, with the supposed intention of flying back to California. He instead started heading east and flew all the way to Dublin, Ireland. As he disembarked from the plane he said, "Just got in from New York. Where am I?” He claimed his flight had been an accident and he had gotten lost after his compass failed to work. His pilot's licence was suspended, but was soon reinstated.



He became a celebrity and gained the name Wrong Way Corrigan. Until his death in 1995, he maintained that his transatlantic flight had been done by accident. In 1987, in Long Island, he was honored on the 49th anniversary of his flight. Beginning in 1992, his hometown of Galveston, Texas, began celebrating Wrong Way Corrigan Day. Corrigan has since been celebrated across the country on Wrong Way Corrigan Day.

Seems it's the backwards people who make history.
Glad you got your problems solved.

There are movers and shakers in our society that have to stumble around the sedentary dregs whose complacency just blogs the masses down into endless mediocrity.
