First Solo Non-Stop Atlantic Flight
Charles Lindbergh becomes the first person to fly solo non-stop across the Atlantic Ocean.
In 1927, Charles A. Lindbergh became the first person to fly solo non-stop across the Atlantic Ocean.
He flew a plane named The Spirit of St Louis from New York to Paris.
The flight took thirty-three and a half hours and covered a distance of 3,600 miles.
A huge crowd of over 100,000 people welcomed Lindbergh on his arrival in France.
Soon after completing the flight, he returned to the USA and became a national hero in his home country.
