GEEK ALERT!!!
San Diego's airport is known as Lindbergh Field because the famed "Spirit of St Louis" was built in San Diego by Ryan Aeronautical. To pay tribute to the airport's namesake, a replica of the "Spirit of St Louis" hangs over the baggage claim area. The original plane hangs in the National Air and Space Museum in Washington. Oddly, I just saw it in October.
Sorry for the geek out, but I was raised around airplanes. To this day, I cannot resist.
