The Soggy end of #3

A Curtiss biplane being disassembled after landing in the water

Not much commentary on these two photos, except to say that judging by the smiles, nobody was seriously hurt.  Perhaps one of the men in the photo was the pilot?

In the above photo, I see the name Dolly Gray, which is pretty distinctive. I found references to a baseball player from early 1900s by that name, but no aviators.  I'm interested to learn more about Capt. Taylor as well, since he appears in many of Ivan's photos.

Don't forget to Share or +1 if you're finding the photos valuable or interesting!  They go a long way in expanding the reach of the blog.  Thanks!
