There were several who flew around the world but they did it with several stops. In 1924, a team of US Navy personnel flew 3 floatplanes around the world.


The first solo flight around the world was made by a young German noble, Baron F.K. Koenig-Warthausen. At 21 years of age, and with only a few hours flying experience, he flew from Berlin to Moscow and continued around the world.

Another adventurer was a speed loving English lady, the Honourable Mrs. Victor Bruce, who, with only a few weeks flying experience, set off in 1930 and flew around the world in her small biplane.

Also a German lady pilot, Elly Beinhorn, also in a Klemm, flew around the world in 1931. None of them could fly their aircraft across the high seas, and all three made their crossings aboard liners.

The first "true solo" pilot was Wiley Post in 1933 in his Vega, the "Winnie Mae".
