Re: Loening OL-9 A8746 USMC Crash "24" August 1931
Paul,
This aircraft was in fact Curtiss O2C-1, A8756, of the Aircraft Squadrons, 2nd Brigade, Managua. An attempted dive recovery over the field at Corinto on August 23rd was left too late and the aircraft mushed into the ground. The landing gear and engine were torn off. Both S.Sgt. Clark and Pte. Campbell suffered fatal injuries.
