Added more details, more to come and later rivets -n- stuff will blend in. For now, it's to see placement. Found some really good large pics yesterday of the wings and bottom of the fuse.
Throwing some color...

With this little plane I tried to learn more about the US air mail.
I thus learned of the existence of these radio stations which guided pilots to their destination.
They have disappeared today, but some vestiges still exist.
As evidenced by several concrete arrows that served as bases for infrastructure and indicated the direction to take.
With TrueEarth sceneries, it is possible to spot some of them.
Here Acalanes Ridge station north of San Francisco.

There are quite a number of those arrows still in existence in the southwest. The last remaining of the arrows in the whole of the upper midwest is located just a few miles from my house and is in the front yard of a farm where the owners, probably back in the 60's or 70's, put in a basketball hoop at the base-end:

That particular arrow, which used to have a beacon, was the last of a long line of arrows/beacons that led air mail pilots into the Dowtown St. Paul Airport (today KSTP) on routes from Milwaukee and Chicago. The original beacon tower, erected near the St. Paul Airport in 1929, located within Indian Mounds Park, still stands and has been restored and painted in the original yellow/black scheme it originally had: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...ounds_Park.jpg
A couple of websites on the 1920's airway navigational arrows and beacons.

My friend's family owns Harvey field. That is the parents house. The older barn house is theirs....that looks amazing. If that's not Harvey field in Snohomish, WA, then I'll be a monkey's uncle! It looks just like it!
