Description
Photograph of composite image of five airplanes that flew in the Dominguez Air Meet, 1910. Above center, a group of five different planes have been compositely placed in this photograph . At center, the profile of a slender plane with a single propeller at its front and a tail composed of cloth is visible. To the left of this plane, two different types of biplanes can be seen flying in the sky. To the right of the center plane, a plane with a wide wingspan and single propeller is seen above, while a crudely-made biplane flies below. In the foreground below these planes, crowds of spectators sitting on benches look up to admire the planes. In the background, two flags can be seen fluttering in the wind.
