Between him and Smithy on the Pacific in 1928, they both shrunk the globe quickly. And nearly 25 years after the Wright brothers first flight.

Worth pointing out that Lindbergh was not the first one to fly the Atlantic He was the first to do it SOLO. British aviators Alcock and Brown crossed from Newfoundland to Ireland in 1919.

True, but two weeks before Alcock and Brown, the Curtiss NC-4 flying boat (which had a crew of six, commanded by Lt. Albert Read) was the first airplane across the Atlantic (though it stopped a few times). Alcock and Brown were the first to go nonstop, and Lindbergh flew twice as far as Alcock and Brown while flying alone. The history of flight is one of pioneers building upon the achievements of their counterparts.

over 80 people had crossed the Atlantic before Lindbergh, just not solo , but that's even debatable

Newfoundland to Ireland sure. But the terms of the prize he was after was the first to cross from the US to France (or vice versa) nonstop. Which he was the first.

The challenge was to fly between New York and Paris, not simply to fly across the Atlantic.

New York restaurant? Raymond Orteig, of French origin, was the owner of the Hotel Lafayette and the Brevoort Hotel.

Re "can he stay awake" A now-gone friend who was age 30 in 1927 told me the following: He walked along Pacific Highway going to and from work. That road is the eastern boundary of what is now Lindbergh Field and was then the location of Ryan Airlines, the manufacturer of the Spirit of Saint Louis. One day on his way to work he saw Lindbergh sitting on a bus bench. On his way home, Lindbergh was still sitting on that bus bench. One does not have to be a private investigator to figure out why.

Get a better historian. The Orteig prize was for New York to Paris or vice versa. The rudder on that Ryan monoplane behind them says “Ryan NYP” New York to Paris.

It made for a more streamlined fuselage, making it more efficient, thereby minimizing fuel burn. Lindbergh - understandably - was obsessed with conserving fuel on the flight.
