OverviewPlease note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Tingmissartoq was the name given to a Lockheed Model 8 Sirius flown by Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh in the 1930s. Tingmissartoq means one who flies like a big bird ; the plane was thus christened by an Eskimo boy in Godthaab, Greenland, who painted the word on its side. Lockheed had introduced its Sirius model in 1929; this particular craft appears to have been built to specifications sometime between then and 1931, when the Lindberghs planned to fly to the Orient via the Great Circle Route. A low-wing monoplane, Tingmissartoq was outfitted with Edo floats, as much of the planned route was over water.
