Lindeberg in New York, then served as a technical assistant for the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics at the American Embassy in Paris, 1921-1940, and again from 1949 until his retirement. Ide, was not only an architect and a collector; he was an aviation pioneer and instrumental in gathering intelligence on the Nazi's aviation program during the 1930s.
