EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the daring spirit of aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss as he expertly pilots his Curtiss Biplane over the shimmering waters of the Atlantic Ocean during an exhibition flight at Atlantic City, New Jersey, in 1910. The image, taken during the nascent days of aviation history, showcases the open cockpit, lightweight biplane with its distinctive pusher propeller, which was a significant innovation in the field of aviation at the time. The Curtiss Biplane, also known as the Model D, was a major advancement from the earlier Wright Flyer and offered greater maneuverability and control. The year was 1910, and the world was in awe of the newfound freedom that the skies offered. The image exudes a sense of excitement and adventure, as the roaring engine and the wind in Curtiss' hair create a dynamic contrast against the serene backdrop of the Atlantic. The 1910s were a pivotal decade in the development of aviation, and this photograph serves as a testament to the courage and ingenuity of the pioneers who pushed the boundaries of human flight. The Curtiss Biplane was a significant milestone in the history of aviation, and its influence can still be seen in modern aircraft designs. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a fascinating look at the early days of flight and the men and machines that made it possible.
