Charles Lindbergh

"Everyone else in the world seems to be ecstatic over this Lindberg fellow"

- Henry Walton Jones, Sr.

Charles Lindberg was the first man who flew non-stop from Europe to America. His feat in May 1927 caused a worldwide sensation, but Dr. Henry Jones did not share the enthusiasm as he was more interested in other matters.

Behind the scenes
Lindbergh's name and background is not mentioned as such in any source, but there is a minor reference in the Grail Diary, where Henry Jones refers to him as Lindberg in an entry dated May 29, 1927. Other than the name and the date (Lindbergh performed his feat in 1927), there is no much other context to identify "Lindberg".

Charles Nungesser was another historical figure in Indiana Jones who attempted to perform this feat.
