As May 21, 2027, approaches—the 100th anniversary of Charles Lindbergh’s historic solo flight across the Atlantic—the Lindbergh Foundation is launching a once-in-a-century tribute.
To mark the centennial, the foundation on Tuesday at EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, announced it is organizing an exclusive, six-day private jet expedition (May 15-22) that will retrace the legendary route from St. Louis to Washington, D.C., New York, and finally, Paris.
