Like Lindbergh, Francis Einarson was an aviation pioneer. Both pilots are enshrined in the Minnesota Aviation Hall of Fame. Einarson knew how to tell a story so he asked the other great aviator to pose for a photo. Lindbergh agreed, but only if it wasn't published until after he'd left town. Francis Junior and Thor Einarson joined the famous duo for the picture.
