Wilmer Stultz (1899–1929) was born in Williamsburg, Pennsylvania. He was a pioneering pilot. On March 5, 1928, Stultz, Oliver Colin LeBoutillier and Mabel Boll on a improvised seat, made the first non-stop flight in the Columbia between New York City and Havana, Cuba.[1] Stultz was the pilot on June 18, 1928 when Amelia Earhart became the first woman passenger to cross the Atlantic. Stultz died in 1929 during a test flight at age 30.
