CURTISS F6C-3 HAWK, A-6972
This airplane landed at Tucson on 3/24/1928 flown
by Capt. Harold D. Campbell. He was eastbound on a solo cross-country
flight from San
Diego, CA to Quantico, VA. Please view the image on this site by following the link in the left sidebar.
According to aerofiles.com, this airplane was a model F6C-3, in that during 1927 an experimental radiator was installed. Another Curtiss Hawk image (probably not 6972) is available on aerofiles.com here.
