A Ford Trimotor plane moving freight and an incredible Trimotor film

[t-head]

We have a detailed post up on The Old Motor today showing the Ford Trimotor along with the new 1936 Lincoln Zephyr and a Douglas DC-3, both from The Henry Ford Museum.

We also found an incredible film of a Ford Trimotor that Harold Johnson flew at an air show, where he looped, spun and snap rolled a Ford Trimotor during the 1930′s. Johnson reportedly performed 17 consecutive loops during one demonstration. See both on theoldmotor.com
