Re: US Navy Collison and Bailout Oct 7 1931
Walsh was flying F6C-3, A-7158, of VS-9S. His aircraft was the target for Tague in a practice camera gunnery flight. Unfortunately, both pilots turned simultaneously when the aircraft were very close together and a mid-air collision resulted. Damage to the longerons of the O2U led to loss of control.
