To mark the 50th anniversary of the first transatlantic airplane crossing (made by two Britons in a Vickers Vimy bomber), the London Daily Mail has put up $12,000 for the person who makes the fastest trip between the top of London's General Post Office tower and the top of the Empire State Building...
