      The memorial commemorates the three French aviators Jean Assolart, René Lefèvre, and Armand Lotti, who were the first Frenchmen to cross the Atlantic by airplane on June 13, 1929. Also on board was stowaway Arthur Schreiber.
      The plane landed on Oyambre Beach near Comillas in the Cantabria province of northern Spain. The onward flight to France ended on Mimizan Beach due to a lack of fuel.
