New Yep, sure is Corrigan. Better pics
Sorry, but I can't see the man at all in yours. Here are a couple of better ones (IMO), where you see both the plane and the man: From the [link|http://www.aeroplaneart.com.au/JSJ_Oldies.htm|Aeroplane Art Company] (third from top, click the pic to enlarge it), and from the [link|http://www.museumofflight.org/Collection/Aircraft.asp?RecordKey=BF681E61-5EB4-4BAF-9379-725477CB4838|Museum of Flight] (again, click pic to enlarge).

Fun bit o'trivia: the [link|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Corrigan|Wikipedia article on Douglas "Wrong Way" Corrigan] strongly implies that his "navigation mistake" was not only intentional, but laboriously planned and prepared.
