US military serial 26-431 The Loening OL was a single-engined amphibian which first flew in 1923. 165 were built and served with the United States Army, Navy and Coast Guard. This is the sole surviving example and is an OA-1A built for the US Army.

The flight covered 22,000 miles and took 133 days, with ‘San Francisco’ being crewed by Captain Ira C.Eaker as pilot and First Lieutenant Muir S.Fairchild as co-pilot.
