English: Cover flown by Wiley Post on his four attempts to make high altitude non-stop flights from Los Angeles to New York between February 22 and June 15, 1935 (The Cooper Collections)
The first attempt on February 22 ended just 57.5 miles East of Los Angeles at Muroc, CA. This was followed by attempts on March 15 (Cleveland, OH; 2,035 miles), April 14 (Lafayette, IN; 1,760 miles), and June 15 (Wichita, KS; 1,188 miles).
When Post was killed on August 15, 1935, thus ending the possibility of any more attempts to complete the AM-2 stratosphere flight, the covers were finally cancelled in Los Angeles on August 20, 1935, and forwarded to their addressees.
