Charles Augustus Lindbergh is just an ordinary air mail pilot, but his vision for the future of flight propels him into a perilous adventure that will change the world; a nonstop flight from New York to Paris. The challenge for the Orteig Prize has already claimed several lives, but Lindbergh believes his flight will be different, and he is willing to die trying. What he may not have known is that along with testing the limits of aviation, he will be testing the limits of his own physical and mental capacity.
