In 1933, Wiley Post made solo flight around the world in the Lockheed Vega 'Winnie Mae'. Not only was it the first solo flight around the world, but it broke the previous record set by Post and his Navigator Harold Gatty. Vegas saw a great deal of corporate/business service, personal transport, and did see military service, with a few operated by the RAAF, Spanish Republic Air Force, and USAAC.
