The Spirit of St. Louis was built by 35 employees of Ryan Airlines, Inc., in San
Diego, California. It took just 60 days. Essentially all of those employees came
to the field to witness Charles Lindbergh taking the aircraft on its first test flight.

on May 20–21, 1927, Lindbergh made the historic first non-stop flight from 
Roosevelt Airfield in New York to Paris, France in 33 hours, 30 minutes for 
a distance of approximately 3,600 miles.

PEnnsylvania 6-5000 is claimed by its owner, the Hotel Pennsylvania, to be
the oldest continuing phone number in New York City. The exact age of the phone number, and the validity of the claim, is unknown. The earliest it could have existed is around 1930, when seven-digit numbers were first adopted
in New York City.

Many big band names played in the Hotel’s Cafe Rouge Ballroom, including
the Glenn Miller Orchestra; the phone number was the inspiration for the
Top 5 Billboard hit.
