A man with an eyepatch.
This was the characteristic feature of Wiley Post, the first man who made a complete tour of the world on an airplane, alone.
Using the auto-pilot and compass in place of his navigator, after leaving New York in 1933, he made a stop in Berlin, the Soviet Union, Alaska and Canada, before returning to the starting point after 7 days, 18 hours and 49 minutes.
The American aviator had already been around the world in 1931, however together with a navigator and not alone.
His adventures ended two years after the big company, when Post crashed in Alaska in an attempt to fly over the North Pole to reach Russia.
