Pomnik postawiony na część pierwszego przelotu portugalskich lotników (Sacadura Cabral i Gago Coutinho) nad południowym Atlantykiem w 1922 roku. Przelotu dokonano w setną rocznicę odzyskania niepodległości przez Brazylię. Pomnik stanowi replika samolotu w skali 1:1 w którym dokonano tego wyczynu. Zbajduje się przy wieży Belem w Lizbonie.

Cantos recantos Encantos Portugal

✧ O Hidroavião Santa Cruz ✧ Belém – Lisboa Há máquinas que repousam. E há máquinas que continuam a voar — no tempo, na memória, na alma de um povo. O Santa Cruz, ancorado junto ao Tejo, não é apenas uma peça de museu. É um testemunho alado de um feito que rasgou o impossível. Em 1922, Gago Coutinho e Sacadura Cabral levantaram voo do presente rumo ao futuro, cruzando o Atlântico com o engenho da navegação celeste e a bravura que só os navegadores de alma herdam. Diante dele, não se vê apenas um avião: Vê-se o reflexo de um país que já dominava os mares — e quis também conquistar os céus. Falta-lhe talvez um abrigo mais digno, uma curadoria que o celebre com a grandeza que merece. Mas mesmo exposto ao sol e ao vento, o Santa Cruz resiste, como quem diz: "Ainda estou em voo." #1001milhas1 #CantosRecantosEncantosDePortugal

Realistyczna replika samolotu w skali 1:1 wykonana ze stali upamiętniająca pierwszy przelot Portugalczyków przez Atlantyk. Znajduje się tuż przy Wieży Belem, nietrudno go niezauważyć. Polecam
