Two weeks before Charles Lindbergh's historic transatlantic flight two Frenchmen attempted the same thing going the other way. World War I ace, Charles Nungesser, along with navigator Francois Coli took off from the aerodrome that Lindbergh would later land at aboard their plane "The White Bird". If all had gone well they would have landed in New York Harbor at the Statue of Liberty.
If all had gone well, what other changes take place? Its said that Lindbergh would have tried to be the first to cross the Pacific if beaten across the Atlantic. Does this butterfly away Amelia Earheart's attempt?
What effect does not having Lindbergh's success do to American Aviation?
What does Nungesser & Coli's success do for French aviation?
Is America less isolationist without Lindbergh being famous?
Would Lindbergh become famous anyway? Crossing the Pacific or something else?
Does an inspired French nation have a better airforce when World War II breaks out?
Finally, in the dance of the Butterflies, If Lindbergh is not famous, his child is never kidnapped. No "Crime of the Century". Does Norman Schwartzekopf not having this case to deal with deal with somehow butterfly away Norman Schwartzekopf, Jr? Having more time to spend with his wife Norman, Jr is born earlier or perhaps is born Norma?
Perhaps not having that big case leads to Schwartzekopf senior never leaving the police and rejoining the army and his son becomes a leading police officer instead of Army general. Attorney General Schwartzekopf, Jr?
