It was interesting to see what he considered to be safe or inconsequential in aviation in the 20s. I give it 4* because he tells a good story, but then kind of trails off. It was entertaining for sure, and I could tell he's just sharing a story, not a professional author. I will end up reading it again. I have the 3rd edition from 1927, passed down to me by my great uncle. ( ) The famous flier's own story of his life and his transatlantic flight, together with his views on the future of aviation. Flying was his trade, his means of livelihood, but the love of it burned in him with a fine passion and his fame gave him a wider scope of usefulness, he announced he would devote himself wholeheartedly to the advance of aeronautics.

WE - The Daring Flyer's Remarkable Life Story and his Account of the Transatlantic Flight that Shook the World is a firsthand account of the flight written by Charles Lindbergh. Charles Lindberg is remembered for completing the first transatlantic flight. When Lindbergh landed in Paris in 1927, the crowd greeted him with such intensity that a speech was impossible, and when he stepped out of the cockpit and into the throngs, his feet did not touch ground for half an hour.
Book affords us a firsthand glimpse into the colorful, risk-filled world of the professional pilot in the early days of flight. In April 1923, Lindbergh purchased a Jenny for $500. He used it to make a living in the West. This is Lindbergh's original, firsthand account of the greatest flight in history. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
