I believe that the first crossing of the South Atlantic Ocean by air in 1922, from Lisbon, in Portugal, to Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil, by Portuguese aviators Gago Coutinho and Artur de Sacadura Cabral should be mentioned. Thank you. The Ogre 06:40, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

The event is briefly mentioned in the Gago article but it would be better if a single, central article about the crossing is made IMHO Nil Einne 07:17, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

@Howcheng: I think we can swap some event for the 30th anniversary of this, it also didn't appeared before: June 15, 1985 - A vandal threw a sulfuric acid on Rembrandt's painting Danaë in the Hermitage Museum, damaging the entire central part of the canvas.
