Artig artikkel om rutekartenes utvikling.
Quote:
A storm over northern Mexico had other plans. When Lindbergh emerged from the clouds, nothing seemed to line up with the maps he had with him. He spotted train tracks and followed them, flying low over stations, buzzing them as close as he could to spot names on the station signs. Finally, he found a sign he could read: “Caballeros.” There was no town called Caballeros on his maps. As he learned later, he had found a sign pointing to the men’s bathroom.
