    It distinguishes a the engine on the wing (than two), and the appearance of a DH-4..., undoubtedly the airplane in the photo is of a LWF J-2. He had a somewhat high landing speed, may have been the cause of the accident...

    1920's tournament in France was the final Gordon Bennett Aviation Trophy race, a competition that was held six times, and began in 1909.
    "The Gordon Bennett Aviation Trophy was an international airplane racing trophy awarded by James Gordon Bennett Jr., the American owner and publisher of the New York Herald newspaper. The trophy is one of three Gordon Bennett awards: Bennett was also the sponsor of an automobile race and a ballooning competition."
    The pictured plane competed, but did not finish the race.
