The Halpin Development Company sold the design and rights of this aircraft to the Metal Aircraft Corporation of Cincinnati who unveiled it to the public at 1929 National Air Races. There were, including the Halpin Flamingo, six variants and it was indeed in one of these that Jimmy Angel crash landed and "discovered" the eponymous falls.
