Re: US Navy Bailout October, 21, 1931
The details of the first event are confirmed.
As regards the July 1933 incident, the aircraft involved was Keystone PK-1, A-8511, of VP-1F, flying off Kaena Pt. Oahu. Jaros, flying as co-pilot, was in the left hand seat, but not strapped in. When a patch of rough air was encountered during a right turn the port wing dropped suddenly and Jaros was thrown out of his seat into the propeller.
