Naval Aircraft Factory PN9

Naval Aircraft Factory PN-9, US Navy patrol flying boat, 1925. The aircraft set a world distance record for seaplanes in September 1925 when it flew from San Francisco to Hawaii under the command of Commander John Rogers. While it had to sail the last 559 miles after running out of fuel, the 1,841 miles covered by air was recognized as a new world seaplane distance record.
