Описание к видео F 2677 Spirit of St. Louis II Flight, Construction and Flight, Lindbergh Field, Frank Tallman

On the 40th anniversary of Lindbergh's flight, a new reproduction named Spirit 2 was built by a movie stunt pilot, Frank Tallman. It first flew on April 24, 1967, and appeared at the 1967 Paris Air Show where it made several flights over Paris. In 1972, Spirit 2 was bought for $50,000 by the San Diego Air & Space Museum (formerly San Diego Aerospace Museum) and placed on public display until it was destroyed by arson in 1978.

Film donated by the Ryan Aeronautical Company to the San Diego Air and Space Museum in the 1990s.
