Curtiss Test Pilots
Curtiss-Wright P-40B/C Warhawk/Tomahawk/Kittyhawk Production in Buffalo, Kenmore Avenue Plant, winter 1941
Curtiss test pilots, from left to right: William Webster, Robert Fausel, H.L. Child (writing on a clipboard), Herb Fisher (standing on wing), Ed Elliott (squatting on wing), and B.T. Hulse. At the time this photo was taken, Childs was the Chief Test Pilot. Behind the group is one of the first Curtiss P-40B fighters to be delivered to the Air Corps.
