  Air racer Rudy Kling (1908-1937), alongside his wife Theresa, as he's awarded the 1937 Thompson Trophy for his performance at the National Air Races in Cleveland, Ohio, in the Menasco Buccaneer-powered Folkerts SK-3 Speed King named "Jupiter, Pride of Lemont" (NR14899). Kling would perish less than three months later, on December 3, 1938, competing in an air race in Miami, Florida. See: www.patcamallierebooks.com/2017/08/americas-love-of-air-r...
