People take a look at Art Goebel's "Woolaroc" plane on display at Mines Field in Westchester a couple of days after the 1928 National Air Races. When Goebel flew the "Woolaroc," he was 31 years old and belonged to the "Thirteen Black Cats of Hollywood," movie stunt fliers who charged $80 for a parachute jump and $15,000 for blowing up a ship in mid-air. Photo dated: August 18, 1928.
