Vincennes Posted March 2, 2021 Share #1 Posted March 2, 2021 5000 of these first flight covers were flown as a fund raiser by the Air Transport Command. The trip was 23,279 miles in 149H 44M. The Globester was designed to transport the military, but had a fare of $2841.00 (or $2431.00 sources differ) plus 15% tax for a civilian traveling in the National Interest. The round-the-world part of the weekly Globester flights was discontinued by the ATC on May 22, 1946. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
