Interesting obit for Dick Whittington who passed away in '85 at 89 years of age.: http://articles.latimes.com/1985-04-...ngeles-theater Has a photo been posted of the man and his plane?

"In a career that lasted nearly 60 years Whittington, among other things, devised a mobile laboratory that made possible the transmission of the first photos of the Rose Bowl football game directly from the stadium to newspapers and wire services in the Midwest and East, captured the spectacle of the 1932 Olympics and the early air races that emanated from Mines Field, now Los Angeles International Airport, and sold sports and news photos to newspapers that their own cameramen had missed."
