The Vickers Vimy first flew in 1917. It was designed to be a long range bomber, capable of flying into Germany in WW1. Its range and ruggedness served another purpose: It was chosen for the first non-stop flight of the Atlantic and the first U.K. to Australia marathon. The design gave birth to five commercial types.
