A one-eyed navigator? How about a doctor named “Crusher”?
At any rate, Lindbergh still would be the first transatlantic SOLO flight.
“At any rate, Lindbergh still would be the first transatlantic SOLO flight.”
Yeah, I don’t know what most everyone on this thread is on about. Lindbergh’s fame has always rested in my mind—in addition to having his kid stolen—on having been the first man to fly across the Atlantic alone. Do we even know whether this French couple were the first team to make it across? There were probably a dozen others, for all I can trust this article.
This sorry excuse for journalism makes up its own myth to debunk (i.e. that Lindbergh was the first man to fly across the Atlantic), in the hope that you’ll mistake it for an actual fact you know (Lindbergh piloted the first solo transatlantic flight). Coming from the lone wolf alternate theorist who’s no doubt looking to sell a book, I understand it. But foreshame, whatever news outlet this represents. You have sullied the sullied name of the MSM.
