Lindburgh and his Spirit of St Louis
The most celebrated aeroplane designed by Ryan, the single engined NYP (better known as the Spirit of St Louis) was the plane in which Charles Linbergh achieved the first solo nonstop crossing of the Atlantic when he flew from New York to Paris in 1927.This post card model was designed in 1986 by a fantastic artist and my dear friend in Banbury, England- Dave Webster.
