[Ernst Udet with Udet U 12 Flamingo]

Photograph of Ernst Udet standing with his Udet U 12 Flamingo aircraft (tail number D822) at the National Air Races, Cleveland, Ohio, 1931. The text "Scintilla Magnetos" is painted on the fuselage.

Caption on adjacent album page: "Major Ernst Udet and his ship. The Major's art of gliding was unequalled and his saucy little pranks brought thunderous applause." Part of a scrapbook related to Dorothy (Hester) Stenzel's participation in the 1931 National Air Races in Cleveland, Ohio, circa 1931.
