This is one of the most valuable resources I have found to be available online. On it
you will find a detailed narrative of his flights from the USS Birmingham on 14 November 1910; and
his flight to the USS Pennsylvania, 18 January 1911. In addition, there are numerous photographs of the
events, most with comprehensive descriptions of the subject. You will recognize many of them from the
"First Aircraft Carriers" section of this website. |
