It is known Lindbergh carried a small amount of mail on his flight from Greenland to Iceland but according to the AAMC this mail was handed over to him in towns along the west coast. Other sources state that mail was also handed over to Lindbergh at Angmagssalik but it is reported as all addressed to Denmark.
