Just interested in the choice of everyone for the greatest pilot from the early days of aviation.
Having written Bert Hinkler's biography I find it hard for anyone to surpass England to Aust solo in an Avian and solo across the South Atlantic in a Puss Moth.
The Puss Moth had half the power of Lindbergh's Trans-atlantic machine.
I think the solo aspect puts Hinkler and Lindbergh in a different league to other pilots of the day.
