In 1927, the world discovered a young airmail pilot named Charles Lindbergh and his famous aircraft designer, Donald A. Hall Sr. Lindbergh became the most famous man alive by braving the Atlantic Ocean. He had flown solo, in a uniquely aerodynamic airplane, built in San Diego and engineered for one death-defying flight. No one expected him to survive. The airplane had been designed by Ryan Airlines new Chief Engineer, Donald A. Hall Sr., and the "Spirit of St. Louis" had preformed perfectly. Built in 60 days, it allowed Lindbergh to takeoff in New York and land in Paris after 33 1/2 hours. Lindbergh beat two of his close competitors, forever establishing his place in aviation history and winning $25,000. After the flight, Lindbergh's celebrity and influence continued. Yet for this young and shy 25 year old, nothing would ever be the same. As the years passed, his fame would continue to change the world, stretching into the 30's, through World War II, and into the space age, well beyond his death in 1974. In his lifetime, Charles Lindbergh would see himself championed by many, reviled by others, and yet always respected for his first flight of faith in Donald A. Hall's design. The first man to fly non-stop from New York to Paris. ~~ We teach Art and science through the lens of history. Developed at Arizona State University, granted 501-C3 educational charity status May 20th, 2013 ~~ Within the book about the designer, Spirit and Creator: The Mysterious Man Behind Lindbergh's Flight to Paris (2003), a forgotten story of how a single event can change the world has waited to be discovered. Now, in 2014, this amazing chronicle, in connection with the team at Flying Over Time, we are intent on bringing forth a new evolution of educational tools as STEM (Science Technology Engineering Math) skills merge with art and creativity at Flying Over Time: The Spirit of St. Louis Exhibition ~~ http://www.flyingovertime.org ~~
