He achieved several more “firsts” in aviation
Charles Lindbergh became one of the world's most well-known people due to his transcontinental flight. The headline "Lindbergh Does It!" appeared above the fold on the front page of The New York Times. About 1,000 people gathered around his mother's house in Detroit. He received many job offers from businesses, think tanks, and institutions, as well as numerous requests to be interviewed by newspapers, magazines, and radio programs.
He rode in more than a thousand kilometers of parades, received millions of messages from enthusiastic followers, and even received the Medal of Honor. Nevertheless, it didn't take long for "The Lone Eagle" to resume its daring flight.
As part of a diplomatic tour to Latin America, he flew "The Spirit of St. Louis" alone and nonstop from Washington, D.C., to Mexico City in December 1927. Charles Lindbergh met Anne Morrow, the daughter of American Ambassador Dwight Morrow, while he was in Mexico, and the two soon got married. Later, Anne developed into Lindbergh's dependable copilot and radio operator. The two of them flew pioneering missions, including one in 1931 from the United States to Japan and China.
