FROM THE ARCHIVES - NEW YORK TAKE-OFF ON 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF LINDBERGH'S FLIGHT.

In May of 2002, I participated in a series of re-enactments for the 75th anniversary of Charles Lindbergh's historic flight across the Atlantic. Part of which was his take-off from New York.

Lindbergh had originally taken-off from Roosevelt Field on Long Island, but the site is now a giant shopping mall, so I was forced to re-enact the New York take-off from the closet airport, Republic Field, which is about 10 miles away. Using the EAA's "Spirit" out of Oshkosh, Wisconsin, I took flight, 75 years after Lindbergh—to the minute.
