the Curtis JN-4 "Jenny" cruised at 40-60 mph, slow enough for wing-walkers to stand despite airflow. this photo has Ivan Unger and Gladys Roy miming a tennis match.

Gladys died at 25 years old in 1927 when she distractedly walked into the spinning propellor of a plane on the ground.

Gladys was apparently 30 when she died, having been born in 1896. Such a fascinating person for having lived such a short life.
