Adamowicz brothers
Brothers Benjamin Adamowicz (born in Krajsk, Poland, 1898; died June 1979, New York), and Joseph Adamowicz (born in Jankowszczyzna, Poland, 1893; died November 1970, New York), born Bolesław and Józef Adamowicz, were American businessmen of Polish descent and amateur aviators, who were known for their transatlantic flight in 1934.
==Early life==
They were born in Krajsk and Janowszczyzna (near Olkowicze), Poland, respectively, not far from Vilnius, in the territory of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth under Russian occupation. Before World War I they emigrated to the USA. After working in a sugar factory, they started their own small business in New York City in 1918, producing soda water and soft drinks.

In 1928, they flew in a plane for the first time as passengers, sparking their enthusiasm for aviation. They bought a Waco biplane and learned to fly at a basic level. Impressed by trans-Atlantic flights, they decided to fly across the Atlantic themselves. In May 1932 they won a minor tourist planes contest at Floyd Bennett airfield, which encouraged them to pursue their plans.
