Is that J.A.D. "Jack" McCurdy, the first biplane pilot (the "Silver Dart", designed by A.G. Bell?) [Or is he the first ice takeoff/landing pilot (same event)?]

I recognized Mr. Bell, after that it was an easy search. I'll wait for a while on the next one though. I think I have the upper hand when it comes to having a lot of time in front of the computer.

Make it a surprise from the VA or VaPer area, I like them all. =)
