This was a milestone in aviation history. In the years before his epic journey, Lindbergh had made hundreds of air-mail delivery flights from St. Louis to various parts of the United States. It was on one of these flights that he conceived the idea of flying solo across the Atlantic. Flying alone, in all types of weather, he believed that he had the experience to succeed where others had failed. He named his aircraft the Spirit of St Louis and supervised every detail of production and testing before the flight. Extra fuel tanks had to be fitted, which made the aircraft very difficult to fly. It was also extremely uncomfortable because the cockpit was small and cramped. But, Lindbergh was an aviator with immense courage and determination who refused to give in to fatigue on the long thirty-three and a half hour flight to Paris. The Spirit of St Louis is now on permanent display in the National Air and Space Museum in Washington. Aviation has come a long way since Lindbergh’s pioneering flight. It’s now possible to complete the same journey in less than four hours by flying supersonically on Concorde! 36.
