Wrong Way Corrigan Still Laughs At Flight Myth
A 1938 legend, Douglas Corrigan, now 51, lives on an orange grove in Santa Ana with his wife and three sons. He recalls the 3150 mile New York to Ireland flight that earned him the nickname and a fame that brought lectures, articles, a book and a film. He retains about $50,000, keeps his license with limited flying, and hopes to donate his famous plane to an aviation museum. He attributes the misdirected flight to a compass error that sent him to Dublin instead of Long Beach.
