Re: Florida US Navy Crash July 30th/31st 1929

The 31 July accident involved O2U-3, A-8216. In a formation join-up G'Sell collided with A-8217 and was forced to jump, together with his passenger. The latter aircraft landed back safely.

In the later, fatal, accident G'Sell was attempting a slow roll but ended up in an inverted spin.

Hope this helps.
