Description

Another portrait another hero!
Charles Augustus LINDBERGH (1902 - 1974)
Why? just cause he decided to fly with a plane (Spirit Of Saint Louis) that had no windows (just a long persicope), no radio and no parachute, and he only took a sandwich and 2 chocolate bars. The funny thing is that he felt asleep numerous times and woke up when the wheels touched the sea, and the engineers that created the plane, unbalanced it on purpose to shake up the pilote so he wouldnt sleep
He traveled from NY to Paris in about 33 1/2 hours on the 20/21st of may 1927
Info : it wasnt the first Trans-Atlantic (in 1919 - 2 englishmen went from Terre neuve to Ireland)

Déjà donné un avis, et en plus tu l’as suivi, que demander de plus ???? bon, c un détail mais j’apprécie particulièrement que l’avion aille vers la droite, parce que c’était vraiment le cas (vers l’Est) :D
