A link to a very interesting narrative by Walter E. Lees a pilot who flew the Dayton Wright FP-2.

Walter E. Lees, was a Pioneer Pilot, soloed in 1912 and continued in aviation until 1945. He flew approximately 12,000 hours and handled over 60 different types of aircraft. In 1931, he set a non-refueling endurance record in a Packard-Diesel powered Bellanca which stood until 1986
