> Win Perkins, a real estate appraiser who specializes in airport properties,  has posted on his Web site a video he created of Charles Lindbergh's famous and risky takeoff in the Spirit of St. Louis ..   According to Perkins, this is unlike any other presentation of the takeoff footage. Perkins said he "painstakingly assembled news footage from five cameras that filmed Lindbergh's takeoff from Roosevelt Field,  Long Island " and "m ixed it with enhanced audio from the same newsreel sources."
