I just saw an ABC News report about what appears to be a replica of a WWI bomber. I don't think the report named the aircraft. But I believe it was a Handley-Paige 0/400. Can anyone verify that? Apparently Steve Fossett is at it again. He will pilot the plane from New Foundland to Ireland, re-creating the first non-stop flight across the Atlantic in 1919, by Sir John William Alcock and Sir Arthur Whitten Brown.
