Photograph showing four men standing in a row in front of an airplane. The second man from right, who is unidentified, has one hand on a tall, padded bag resting on the ground in front of him. The other three men are pilots and brothers Dud Rankin (left), Tex Rankin (second from left), and Dick Rankin (right). The photograph may have been taken at Rankin field in Portland in August 1930, and the plane in the background may be a Stinson Detroiter, the On-to-Oregon. The Rankin brothers flew the On-to-Oregon in four attempts, all unsuccessful, to set an endurance flying record in August 1930.

Photograph showing a man, probably Dudley “Dud” Rankin, sitting on a box next to a Stinson Detroiter monoplane named On-To-Oregon. He is wearing a suit, tie, and parachute. An unidentified man is standing behind him and adjusting the straps on the parachute harness, and several other people are watching. The photograph was probably taken in mid-August of 1930, before Dud Rankin and his brothers, Tex Rankin and Dick Rankin, attempted to set an endurance flying record in the On-To-Oregon.

Photograph of a man, woman, and two children outdoors next to an airplane. The people in the photograph are probably (from left) pilot Dudley “Dud” Rankin; his son, Dudley; his daughter, Iva; and his wife, Sylvia. The photograph was probably taken on August 17, 1930, at the Rankin airport on Union Avenue in Portland, before Dudley Rankin and his brothers, Tex Rankin and Dick Rankin, began their first attempt to set an endurance flying record. The attempt, along with three subsequent flights in August 1930, was unsuccessful. In all four flights, brothers flew a Stinson Detroiter monoplane named On-To-Oregon, which is the plane partially visible in the background of this photograph.
