| Roger Dimick Beaumont, TX | My father worked on the Marcoux Bromberg Special at the Cleveland Air Races in 1937 and 1938.
He was "hired" while working for Mid-Continent Airlines in Kansas City Missouri through his friendship with Joe Jacobsen. It's my understanding that Jacobsen was a well-known pilot in Kansas City. He enjoyed his experiences with the Marcoux Bromberg team and I enjoy the history of this aircraft. Roger Dimick 06/05/2001 @ 15:08 [ref: 2408] |
