This is c/n 8 NC864M after NYRBA Capt Herman Sewell lost both engines on 13 Aug 1930 while on his way to Havana from Cienfuegos. He made, as can be seen, a very credible landing with no injuries reported to anyone. Aircraft was repaired and survived all the way to Sep 1942 when it finally was destroyed in an accident. I was surprised about the name 'Porto Rico' since it has always been listed as named Puerto Rico! However my initial misgivings regarding the spelling capacity of NYRBA (Consolidated) staff I checked and found that Porto Rico was an old style spelling and can be found on for example older maps. Not a day without learning something new! Stig

Puerto became correct in 1932 apparently...so what language is Porto Rico...Portuguese? or Italian?

This is not a "Boeing 314," but instead a Pan American Airways Martin M-130 flying boat (reg. NC14714), better known as the "Hawaii Clipper." She'd disappear with 15 souls aboard on a flight from Guam to Manilla, on July 28, 1938. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawaii_Clipper

I don't see his initials on it, but this appears to have been drawn by R.E.G. Davies. It is very much his cartographic style.
