Albert Bond Lambert
Angebote / Angebote:
Albert Lambert had two passions in life: flying and his hometown of Saint Louis. After his first ride in a hot air balloon, Albert became a huge supporter of all things related to aviation. He learned to pilot a hot air balloon and fly an airplane. He was a friend of the Wright brothers and other early aviators, and organised exhibitions of the latest airplane technology. He helped St Louis build airfields and promoted the city as a centre for aviation. He even helped Charles Lindbergh raise money to build his airplane, The Spirit of Saint Louis, whose name honoured Saint Louis as a centre in the new aviation industry. The airport Albert Lambert started is still named in his honour, Lambert-St Louis International Airport.
