Скачать или смотреть The Thunderbird’s Last Flight, Masashi Goto Disaster | Profiling Evil

In 1929, a young Japanese pilot named Masashi Goto set out to achieve the impossible: fly his homemade biplane, the Ryofu-Go (“Thunderbird”), across three continents and land in Japan. Goto was the first Japanese citizen to earn a U.S. pilot’s license, inspired by pioneers like #HarrietQuimby, #AmeliaEarhart, and #BessieColeman. After years of hard work, Goto finally launched his world flight attempt. On July 4, 1929, carrying both an American flag and a letter bound for Japan, he departed Salt Lake City on the next leg of his journey. But over Utah’s rugged Uinta Mountains, a violent thunderstorm ended his dream.

Four days later, a sheepherder named Nymphus Simmons found the wreckage in Dry Canyon. Goto’s neck was broken instantly on impact. Though his flight was unfinished, his story became a powerful symbol of ambition, sacrifice, and the courage to bridge cultures. Today, a weathered monument on Highway 35 near Kamas, Utah, marks the site of his dream’s end. Once vandalized during WWII, it was later restored by the Japanese Association of Utah and the Japanese American Citizens League—ensuring his name will never fade from memory.
