Ping: Group - Photo Request
There was a plaque that I saw some years ago with a photo that appeared to
be taken early in the 20th Century. Being a B&W photo, it showed a tree, barren of leaves, with an early biplane crumpled in it's branches, the fuselage sticking forlornly out to one side. On the plaque was written: "Aviation in itself is not inherently dangerous, but to a degree even greater than the sea is terribly unforgiving of any carelessness, incapacity, or neglect." Can anyone here post the photo? Thanks! Alan |

Alan,
I have a print of that hanging on the wall. It's a 16x20 though (so too big for me to easily scan). If no one else can come up with it I can try to shoot it with my digital camera.
