I,m wondering if its a airflow test, similair to a tuff test
since she is tied down at the tail , along with wheel chocks
using cloth to show ripples in the airflow

judging by the other Curits planes in the background
appears she is still at the factory..


got a photo of another curtiss plane tied down the
same way, undergoing an engine runup.
however does not have the taped down material.
