The caption for this photo reads: Colonel Lindbergh in Mexico after his non-stop flight from Washington. Hardly less spectacular than his flight across the Atlantic was Colonel Lindbergh’s non-stop flight from the capital of the United States to the capital of Mexico, Dec 13-14, 1927, a total flying distance of 2100 miles. He was hailed enthusiastically as the “Ambassador of Good-will.”
