Artur de Sacadura Freire Cabral, GCTE (23 May 1881 – 15 November 1924), known simply as Sacadura Cabral ((:sɐkɐˈduɾɐ kɐˈbɾaɫ)), was a Portuguese aviation pioneer who in 1922, together with Gago Coutinho (1869–1959), conducted the first flight across the South Atlantic Ocean, and also the first using astronomical navigation only, from Lisbon, Portugal, to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. On 15 November 1924, he disappeared while flying over the English Channel, along with his co-pilot, Mechanical Corporal José Correia, due to fog and his shortening eyesight (which never kept him from flying). Although some float remains from his seaplane had been found four days later, the bodies were never found. A statue dedicated to them is located in Lisbon. Another statue is located in his hometown, Celorico da Beira. He was the granduncle of Portuguese politicians Miguel Portas and Paulo Portas. ==Gallery== File:First South TransAtlantic flight monument in Lisbon.jpg|Lisbon monument to the flight File:First South TransAtlantic flight monument route in Lisbon.jpg|Lisbon monument of the route File:Vuelo Gago Coutinho y Sacadura Cabral.svg|Route of the first to cross the South Atlantic Ocean by air Image:Monumentoa Gago Coutinho e Sacadura Cabral em Grândola.JPG|Monument to Sacadura Cabral and Gago Coutinho in Grândola (Portugal) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Artur de Sacadura Cabral」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
