Answer Key:

Q1: Spirit of St. Louis  /  Lindbergh's flight was the first solo transatlantic flight. The single-engine monoplane was designed by Donald A. Hall of Ryan Airlines and named the "Spirit of St. Louis" in honor of Lindbergh's supporters from the St. Louis Raquette Club.

Q2: Chuck Yeager  /  Two nights before the scheduled flight date, Yeager broke two ribs when he fell from a horse. Yeager didn't tell the military doctors or his superiors fearing he would be removed from the flight.

Q3: George W. Bush  /  On May 1, 2003, Bush flew to the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln in a Lockheed S-3 Viking to announce the end of major combat operations in the Iraq War. Behind him hung a banner that said "Mission Accomplished". The banner later became infamous as the war would continue for eight more years.

Q4: Beluga  /  The plane is a cargo conversion of the Airbus 330. It was originally developed to transport very large aircraft parts (such as wings) between Airbus factories. The planes are also available for lease and are used to transport outsized and valuable cargo.

Q5: Communicate  /  By creating a strict hierarchy, the principle helps pilots avoid becoming distracted by troubleshooting problems and instead prioritizes flying the plane. It reduces human error and improves the chances of a successful outcome in emergency situations.
