| John Kaminski briefly kept his plane at the Milwaukee School of Aviation in West Allis. There met Jack Knight, a Silverston student (one of the few students known to have learned to fly at the school), and he later moved his plane to the Knight farm in Stone Bank. Later Jack Knight went on the exhibition circuit with Kaminski as his mechanic. |
