• AirportAppraisals.comWin Perkins, a real estate appraiser who specializes in airport properties, posted on his Web site the video he created of Charles Lindbergh's famous and risky takeoff in the Spirit of St. Louis. According to Perkins, this is unlike any other presentation of the takeoff footage. Perkins said he "painstakingly assembled news footage from five cameras that filmed Lindbergh's takeoff from Roosevelt Field, Long Island" and "mixed it with enhanced audio from the same newsreel sources."
What guts it took for Lindbergh to overcome the odds against him and accomplish this amazing feat.
