Of the unsuccessful six aircraft, two crashed on takeoff, two were forced to return for repairs, and two went missing during the race (Golden Eagle and Miss Doran). One of the aircraft that was repaired took off again to search for the missing aircraft several days later and also vanished over the sea (Dallas Spirit). In all, before, during, and after the race, ten people died and six airplanes were lost or damaged beyond repair. (en)
  • La course aérienne Oakland-Hawaii (également connue sous le nom du Trophée Dole ou Dole Derby) est l'une des plus importantes courses aériennes de l'entre-deux-guerres. Elle s'est tenue en août 1927. L'objectif était de rejoindre le territoire d'Hawaï en partant de la ville d'Oakland en Californie, et en traversant l'océan Pacifique. L'épreuve est restée célèbre par le destin tragique de la majorité de ses participants. Sur les 15 (ou 18) avions engagés (onze ont été certifiés pour la compétition), trois se sont écrasés avant le début de l'épreuve, entraînant trois morts. Sur les huit participants à la course, deux équipages disparaissent pendant la course. Un troisième avion, obligé de faire demi-tour pour des réparations, a repris son vol pour rechercher les disparus et a également disparu. Au total, la course a fait dix morts et six avions ont été détruits. Seulement deux des huit avions ont atterri avec succès à Hawaii. (fr)

  • Воздушная гонка на приз Джеймса Доула (англ. Dole Air Race), или «дерби Доула» (англ. Dole Derby) — авиационное соревнование, состоявшееся 16—17 августа 1927 года. По условиям, выдвинутым гавайским миллионером , участники гонки должны были пролететь 3870 км над Тихим океаном из калифорнийского аэропорта Окленд в недавно открытый аэропорт Гонолулу. Несмотря на организационную и техническую поддержку военно-морских сил США, широко разрекламированное «Дерби Доула» обернулось чередой катастроф. Три авиатора погибли накануне гонки, пятеро пропали без вести на её маршруте и ещё двое погибли в ходе поисково-спасательной операции. Лётчики-любители, отправившиеся в сверхдальний полёт в наспех переоборудованных, перегруженных топливом одномоторных самолётах, практически не имели шансов выжить. Лишь два самолёта из восьми благополучно долетели до Гонолулу. (ru)
