REQUEST FOR HELP      I have the 1927 Heath Spokane Super Parasol and am looking for pictures of the airplane that Ed Heath flew in the 1927 Spokane, Washington Air Race. It was the 7th National Air Derby. This airplane took 1st place in the light plane race. It was powered with a Bristol Cherub engine. I am looking for original pictures that I can copy for my museum display and am trying to find out what colors the airplane was painted.      I am also looking for the whereabouts of the two 1st place trophies that Ed won in the Spokane race. Is there a copy of the check that he won ? Please advise, Jerry Turner nosref@peoplepc.com Nostalgic Reflections Museum P.O. Box 350 Veradale, Washington 99037 509-226-3522
