SOS Lindbergh

Another portrait another hero! Charles Augustus LINDBERGH (1902 - 1974) Why? just cause he decided to fly with a plane (Spirit Of Saint Louis) thathad 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) Illustrator & photoshop around 3h
