On February 18, 1930, a Guernsey cow named Nellie Jay flew in a Ford Trimotor airplane from Bismarck, Missouri, to the International Aviation Exhibition in New York City. Chosen for her calm nature and impressive milk production, Nellie Jay was milked into a container while flying 2,000 feet above the ground.
