When he landed, did he praise LePen?

He was met by Frenchman waving white flags. >:)

Dead reckoning across the Atlantic! Incredible!

We'll probably never know how many did not make it all the way across....RIP.

Thanks Lindy, you're still inspiring young pilots.....and you married well!

I'm curious about the modifications needed to cross the Atlantic in a small plane like that, i.e. extra large fuel tank. Even modern personal aircraft usually have a pretty limited range around 1600 miles. Crossing the Atlantic is about twice that distance.

I hope he doesn't think those 1 million Frenchmen waving signs and banners were there for him when he landed.

Now that he's in France, maybe he can recreate his grandfathers Anti-Semetic and pro-NAZI stance as well.

A young Charles Lindbergh used to hop over in his plane from St. Louis to a small, primitive air field in what is now a far western suburb of Chicago.

He liked to kibbitz with the younger local set that hung around the hangar there.

My mom and her boyfriend (later to be my dad) loved Lindbergh and mom said he was great fun.

I scoured the fading photos in the family album from that time, but, alas, no pictures of Lucky Lindy.
