Comments  - Came across this site recently. Didn't know it existed. Evidently they have done at least 1 "fly over" when the Air Force said they were unable, due to sequestration.

 If you have the time, start at Part 1 - You need to click on “Contact” at upper left of home page to start at the beginning.  Part 3 shows the take off.

    Charles Lindbergh's Flight

 

  READ INSTRUCTIONS BELOW

Win Perkins, a real estate appraiser who specializes in airport properties,  has posted on his Web site a 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 "m ixed it with enhanced audio from the same newsreel sources."

This is one of the most interesting videos I've seen come over the Internet.  When you click on the address, episode #3 comes up ready to play.

I suggest you first click on "CONTACT"  to the left and select #1, then watch them in order, #1 through #4 (each time going back to "contact" and selecting the next one). I was glued to the screen through all 4.

What guts it took for Lindbergh to overcome the odds against him and accomplish this amazing feat.
