Don't know why you are getting down voted, dude loved Eugenics, was very pro German and should have been considered a murder suspect for the death of his son. His actions were suspicious, and his son was not a perfect human specimen.

What was wrong with boy? Didn't they arrest someone?

He had a bone growth condition and an enlarged skull. They arrested Bruno Richard Hauptmann and executed him but evidence couldn't even place him near the Lindbergh's on the night in question. Meanwhile, Charles told the wife and wet nurse to stay away from Charles jr. Room from 8-10 p, when the wet nurse went into the room and discovered the baby missing, the wife and wet nurse assumed Charles had moved him. When told, Charles declared "They" have stolen our baby. This was before the ransom note was found. The mansion they were in was quite remote and would require a good amount of scouting to know exactly where it was, not to mention where the nursery was. Other oddities include them being at this location as it was still under construction and they would have usually been back in the city, doubly unusual when you consider how dedicated to routine Charles was. The man they arrested two years later was certainly no criminal mastermind and this job would have required great planning or unbelievable luck.

>Lindbergh explained that in his airplane his chair was made of wicker and there was a hole in it. And there was a funnel below that hole. And his waste, whenever nature called, would go down through there into sort of an aluminum can. And so he explained that and said that rather than show up with it in Le Bourget, the airport that he landed in, that he just dropped it over France.

How’d he land the thing?

Instruments and sticking his head out the window.

Hung his head out the window and eyeballed it. Dude got his start flying biplanes without instruments of any kind, putting it down on a field with his head to the side was child's play.

Nazi fuck, probably killed his own son.
Flew airplane, first. Across a water.
