This little bird, apparently the favourite for some people to win the Dole Air Race from California to Hawaii, was designed and built by reserve naval officer Norman Goddard here at North Island. He crashed El Encanto in the take-off run from Oakland. Photo from: San Diego Air & Space Museum This photo was added on 29 May 2021, and has since been viewed 744 times. |
