LINDBERGH CHARLES: (1902-1974) American Aviator who made the first solo non-stop flight across the Atlantic from Paris to New York in the Spirit of St. Louis, May 1927. T.L.S., Charles A. Lindbergh, one page, 4to, Scotts Cove, Darien, Connecticut, 14th June 1967, to Colonel Louis Castex. Lindbergh states that he had departed the United States in April for a trip to Europe and continues to explain 'At that time I expected to return the first week in May. When I was in Amsterdam at the end of April, a phone call with New York resulted in my going directly to Viet Nam from Europe, and remaining in south east Asia throughout the month of May. During this time I was travelling almost constantly and without much pre-arranged schedule. For two weeks in Indonesia I was out of even radio communication. I made no attempt to have mail forwarded after I left the United States', giving this as the reason that he has only just read his correspondent's considerate letter and apologising for the late reply and for not having been able to accept an invitation. Some light staining and minor age toning to two edges, not affecting the text or signature. About VG
