The Spirit of St. Louis is a famous plane, which flew on May 20, 1927 from Long Island, New York, to Paris, France. It was in, fact, the first solo transatlantic flight and was a huge step in aviation history by Charles Lindbergh.

The Airbus A310 is a 1982 French aircraft vehicle and became a transatlantic option for passengers around the world. They were manufactured until 2005, making this model a long-time option for airlines.
