Charles Lindbergh wasn't the most experienced pilot. He wasn't the best funded. But on May 20, 1927, he took a calculated risk that changed history.
A $25,000 prize awaited the first pilot to fly nonstop from New York to Paris. Lindbergh convinced St. Louis businessmen to back his single-engine plane when others were building expensive multi-engine aircraft. His gamble: simplicity beats complexity.
33 hours and 30 minutes later, he landed in Paris and became the most famous person on Earth.
