At the airfield there is an advert for the Swallow Airplane Company which made a popular primary trainer in the twenties before going out of business at the end of the decade. More interestingly, Cromwell asks Evans if he can fly Charles Nungesser's aircraft which happens to be at the airfield. Nungesser was the third top Ace of the French air force in WWI, and noted for the "Knight of Death" shield on the side of his aircraft, visible in the picture. Nungesser vanished in 1927 while trying to fly the Atlantic non-stop a few week's before Lindberg. The aircraft appears to be a Hanriot HD-1 which is now on display at the Planes of Fame air museum in Chino, California.
