Pilot Arthur V. Rogers standing in front of the Bryant Monoplane "Angel of Los Angeles" (reg. X705). The aircraft was constructed on behalf of famed architect Leland A. Bryant for entry in the Dole Air Race, which featured a $35,000 prize for the first non-stop flight from Oakland, California to Honolulu, Hawaii. On August 11 12, 1927, ~~Bryant~~ Rodgers would take "Angel of Los Angeles" up for a test flight from Western Air Field in Montebello, CA. Approximately two-miles from air field the aircraft reportedly nose-dived toward the ground. Witnesses reported ~~Bryant~~ Rogers (CORRECTED - see Stig Jarlevik's information below) jumping from the aircraft as it dove, but he was killed when his parachute failed to open.

The date seems to have been Aug 12th at least according to the newspapers, and not the 11th and it was of course the pilot Rogers who was killed. Stig

Interesting to note that both of the Wynne images you've uploaded have a magenta cast. Is there a specific reason for this? I have a fading print of this photograph in the family album, which I thought of uploading to my stream, but you beat me to it. :-)

Oh sorry, Mike! I was just so eager to get it up there. Really don't know about the magenta cast - many of our Wynne photos have it, and I love it personally...
Mike Hannon said:
No need to apologise at all. It's one of those photos I was sure you'd have, and in far superior quality to the print I have. The remainder of the photographs I have are of the immediate Wynne family members, and then my Great-grandfathers offspring, so I hope to see many more of T.J's photos here.

Well, if you're uploading any of the family members to your own stream, let's know - would love to see what they looked like...

Haha! I don't think I'll go that far yet, as I only have the free account on here, and I'm limited to 200 photos. I did come across two postcards from the era that I've scanned and posted, and though the photographs aren't credited to Thomas, they may be of interest.......
