the Curtis JN-4 “Jenny” cruised at 40-60 mph, slow enough for wing-walkers to stand despite airflow. this photo has Ivan Unger and Gladys Roy miming a tennis match.
Gladys died at 25 years old in 1927 when she distractedly walked into the spinning propellor of a plane on the ground.
Yeah we had strict rules in the Army about never, ever walking around or behind the tail of a helicopter. You always, always, always walk around the front. Guess why we had that rule?

Every time I see interesting/silly rules, it always reminds me that someone probably died before the rule was created.
There is a saying: “Safety rules are written in blood.”
They are actually written with ink. Common misconception.
I stand corrected. Thank you sir or madam.
She was probably starting at her phone
Gladys was apparently 30 when she died, having been born in 1896. Such a fascinating person for having lived such a short life.
