The Spirit of St. Louis

25: He gets financial backing and a new name for the plane. The birth of something new.

45: He becomes aware of news about pilots dying - this escalates the situation. He reaches St. Louis and financial backers doubt he'll survive the attempt. Lindbergh is now aware of the deadly risk he's taking and wants to "try until it is done." Now that I'm aware.

60: "Let's roll her out." They push the plane out of the hangar and everyone follows the plane down the runaway. There's no going back now.

-45: He no longer flies over land, for nearly the rest of the way the plane flies over ocean. Discovery.

-25: He's trying to fly in the right direction, he tries to calculate but he falls asleep and nearly crashes. He wakes up and continues onward until he lands in Paris. The final turning point.
