NX14Y - THE HOSLER FURY

Russell A. "Curly" Hosler of Huntington, Indiana started work on the Fury racing aircraft in 1938 at Bridgeport, Connecticut, subsequently it was moved to New York, New York, to Fort Wayne, Indiana, to Huntington, Indiana, and it was finally flown once (in ground effect) at Lake Wawasee, near Syracuse, Indiana in early 1941. Stored during WW II, it went into deterioration after the war and gradually faded away. Powerplant was a Curtiss D-12 twelve-cylinder, liquid cooled, V-engine.
is that the pilot that you can see?
In fact, you could see more of the pilot in a photo, because he is sitting in a greenhouse of sorts, head sticking out.
