Quite often old post cards, provided they have not been altered, are the only images that have preserved slices of history. This image shows what is probably an early Navy pontoon bi-plane either about to take off or just landing near Newport Harbor’s Goat Island Lighthouse. They were probably conducting some type of torpedo experiment. (Lighthouse Digest archives.) Back to the edition of: May/Jun 2013
