D Correct answer
Explanation

The Rutan Voyager was the first aircraft to fly around the world without refueling in 1986. However, there's an error in the options - the question asks about the first non-stop flight, which was actually by a B-52 in 1957, but Voyager was the first without refueling (carrying all fuel onboard). The marked answer (Voyager) is correct for 'without refueling' in the sense of carrying all fuel from start.
