Harmer, Dalwick and Bojanowicz, with 1983 Diena certificate. (Shortly after the Hawker-Grieve flight left Newfoundland, another attempt was made by Frederick Raynham and C.F.W. Morgan. They took off from Quidi Vidi, Newfoundland, traveled a few hundred yards, and then crashed into the ocean. Another attempt was made in July, with the same results. The mail from these flights was recovered and transported to England by ship. Letters with manuscript overprints (which were made by W.C. Campbell, the Secretary of the Postal Department) arrived safely, but the contents of the mail bags had been damaged by water. As a result, many of the Newfoundland stamps had floated off the envelopes. Less than 20 covers are known) (Unitrade CAN $50,000) cat. $35000 (Cat No. C1a) (Image)

The Secretary of State for Air, Winston Churchill, presented them with the Daily Mail prize for the first crossing of the Atlantic Ocean in "less than 72 consecutive hours." Since there was a small amount of mail carried, this was in effect the first transatlantic airmail flight.
