Antonio Locatelli (1895 - 1936) was an Italian aviator and journalist. He served in Gabriele d'Annunzio's air squadron during the war against Austria and was decorated. After the war he became a deputy to Parliament. In 1924 he attempted a transatlantic flight but was forced down into the seas off Greenland, whence he was rescued.
