Richard Byrd
Why We Like Him: Richard Byrd was a great explorer and alumni of the University of Virginia. In 1926, he flew a triple prop plane over the north pole, made an early transatlantic flight in 1927, and mounted the first of five expeditions to Antarctica in 1928. A Wahoo and a great explorer! Richard Byrd is one of the great American pioneers!
