Aeromarine 40 flying boat (Bureau # A-5066)
On the water near USS Hannibal (AG-1), in 1923. One of
the ship's steam launches can be seen between the plane's port
wings, apparently preparing to take it in tow.
This aircraft was assigned to assist Hannibal in survey
work in Cuban waters. Its Aircraft Record card states that it
was converted to a Model 41 Type in about 1922.
