At the age of 25 in 1927, Charles Lindbergh became an international hero when he made the first non-stop solo flight from New York to Paris. Even though British aviators John Alcock and Arthur Brown made the first ever non-stop transatlantic flight in June 1919. Never-the-less, the solo flight by the former airmail pilot was viewed as a tremendous breakthrough for aviation. A huge celebration was held in Washington DC when Lindbergh arrived to meet with government and military leaders. In the coming years, few would celebrate Lindbergh as he evolved into a Nazi sympathizer and serial adulterer.
