The China Clipper flight, which was the first scheduled transpacific airmail service, took approximately 59 hours to complete its inaugural journey from San Francisco to Manila in November 1935. This historic flight covered around 8,000 miles and involved several stops along the way. The Clipper's journey marked a significant advancement in aviation and a new era for air travel and mail delivery across the Pacific.
A China clipper refers to a type of fast sailing ship, particularly popular in the 19th century, known for its sleek design and large sail area, which enabled it to travel quickly on long ocean routes. The term is also associated with the Clipper ships that were used primarily for transporting tea and other goods from China to Europe and America. Additionally, "China Clipper" can refer to the Pan Am China Clipper, a historic flying boat that made the first transpacific airmail flights in the 1930s.
