Photograph of Glenn Curtis carrying Jerome Fancuilli as passenger at the Dominguez Air Show, 1910. At center, Glenn Curtis is seen gripping a round steering wheel and piloting a simple biplane. To the right, Jerome Fancuilli sits on the frame of the plane as it moves through the air. The plane is composed of two parallel, flat wings. Additionally, two sets of flaps can be seen on the edge of each wing. Below the frame of the plane, two wheels are visible and one wheel extends far from the structure. Several rods and other support can be seen holding the wings and frame in place. Below the plane in the foreground, several lightly-colored tents and a banner are visible. In the background, trees and houses dot the horizon.
