Re: Photo Curtiss Aircraft

Not well known photo Clint, but it is out there somewhere since I have it downloaded at some point.

It is a series of Curtiss - Garden City - official photos (I have two different ones) and they are dated Oct 3rd 1918, that is the day before its first flight.

My copy (possibly given to Vought) identifies the second person from left as Lt Chas J McCarthy USNR (he was chairman of Vought Corp in 1956) and was possibly the pilot chosen for the first flight.

Cheers
Stig
