Bleriot-Zappata 110

The Bleriot-Zappata 110 was ordered by the French Air Ministry for record breaking flights. In December 1930, piloted by Bossoutrot and Rossi, it raised the world duration record to 67 hrs 53 min. Fifteen months later the same crew set a closed circuit distance record of 6703 miles. Over 5-7 August 1933 Codos and Rossi flew non-stop from New York to Rayak, Syria, establishing a straight line distance record of 5654 miles.
