He was a daredevil and stunt pilot
Charles Lindbergh spent two years as an aerial daredevil and traveling stuntman after learning to fly at the Nebraska Aircraft Corporation in Lincoln. The youthful pilot dazzled spectators with daring displays of wing-walking, parachuting, and mid-air plane changes during "barnstorming" excursions through the American heartland.
His first solo flight and return to the skies didn't occur until May 1923 at Souther Field in Americus, Georgia, a former Army flight training facility, when he purchased a Curtiss JN-4 "Jenny" biplane that had been left over from World War I. Despite the fact that Lindbergh hadn't touched an aircraft in almost six months, he had already quietly concluded that he was prepared to fly alone. Lindbergh flew solo for the first time in the Jenny, that he had just purchased, after a half-hour of dual time with a pilot who was stopping by the field to pick up another surplus JN-4.
After another week or so of "practicing" at the field, Lindbergh took off from Americus for his first solo cross-country flight, traveling 140 miles to Montgomery, Alabama. This gave him five hours of "pilot in charge" time. He then spent the majority of the remaining months of 1923 barnstorming virtually constantly under the alias "Daredevil Lindbergh." This time, unlike the year before, Lindbergh served as the pilot and sailed in his "own ship". This is one of the interesting facts about Charles Lindberg.
