Californio -
I don;t know of a comprehensive list of graduates of the North Island Curtiss schoot, but I do have a couple of resources at home which might provide some leads. If you could drop me you g'father's name I may be able to help.
I have some Rockwell (North Island) info, some on the Kelly Field programm and graduates and a list of all Aero Club of American certificates awarded if he applied for one. Joe Gertler, who contibutes here as well may be able to lend a hand if he pops into this thread.
You might also want to try the Curtiss Museum in Hammondsport, NY. They *may* have additional information that could help. They have a decent archive of early aviation material obviously with a heavy Curtiss slant.
You can drop me a PM, put his name in this thread or send me an email directly at
NJAVIATORS@AOL.COM.
Keep at it,
Mike
