Talk:1927 in aviation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am a first time user of wikipedia and have a question about two photographs I have from approximately 1927. The first photo shows a plane from the right front with two persons identified as Dieudonne Costes and Joseph Le Brix seated in the aircraft. The other photo is the same plane shown from the left front and name of the plane is clearly visible Nungesser-Coli. In the foreground of the second photo you can clearly see another aircraft with the name Spirit of St Louis. Is it possible that the Spirit of St Louis, while on it's 48 state 82 city tour, was at the same location as the Nungesser-Coli aircraft. Material I have read stated that the Spirit of St Louis made a trip to Latin America during the above tour. Could both aircraft have been at same location there since Costes and Le Brix's first leg of their round the world flight was to South America.Cwhidden98 12:56, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
