Scope and content

Photograph showing a Russian airplane (center, number URSS-300) in flight on October 18, 1929, probably between Longview, Washington, and Portland. The Oregon Journal published a similar photo on Page 1 of the October 18 edition, along with an article titled “Soviet Aces Plan to Fly on Saturday.” The Journal reported that the plane and its pilots were on a trip around the world from Moscow to New York, and that shortly after the plane flew over Portland, it turned back due to mechanical trouble and landed at Pearson Field in Vancouver, Washington.
