1910 International Air Meet at Dominguez Field      This is a production of the California State University at Dominguez Hills. It probably is the most valuable resource which is readily available on the subject. It offers a complete a revue of the air meet and includes numerous photographs which serve to illustrate the story. You can access the site by clicking on the title above.

 

First in the Air in British Columbia by Peter Corley-Smith      This article on the ROYAL BC MUSEUM website offers a very interesting revue of his exploits in British Columbia in the Spring of 1910. It is illustrated with three very nice photographs, including one which shows his face in substantial detail. You can access the site by clicking on the title above.      This is an archived copy of the article which I retrieved from the "www.waybackmachine.org" website. The original had disappeared from the net.
