That's okay, they would have used aircrew from Maine, then it's not a problem where they land, if at all !!!!

I thought this looked more like a Wright than a Curtiss. Is that Herbster, Rodgers, and Wiegand standing in front of a Wright B-1?

Well according to my research pieces it's probably Cal Rodgers with a Wright Model B witch he redesignated "EX".

You know, Rob, you could try around 1920-1940's quiz again,..please.
I really didn't mean that remark about Maine airmen !!
It's just that the whole world knows that the best pilots come from NZ....

How did you know that ???
Googling only give's you so much info and then it's laboriously going thru what few books I have...
Nah, Bridget's going to go halves with me on the Nieuport starter kit.
What else could a guy ever want out of his fiancee ??
