For Christmas, my son Keegan gave me a certificate for a "right seat" ride, as a co-pilot, in EAA's Ford Trimotor. I was able to do so during Ariventure Saturday, July 28 only because I was a licensed pilot. Virtually unedited, handheld.

  • I wish you had shown us the pilot operating the controls. I know what an airfield looks like, I know what the sky looks like, but I don't know and deeply wish to know what the controls being operated on a trimotor looks like. There were some lovely shots of the window frame and the pilot's chin, various rivets and other bland metal parts. But nothing of actual flying. Aren't YOU interested in how its flown?

  • Flew shotgun in this Baby 3 years ago, What an INCREDIBLY AWESOME KICKASS experience it was!!! I even got to throttle the engines up for takeoff, That was the BEST part of all for me!!!!

  • @greenseaships Try landing or taxiing ANY jet into the grass!!! COMPLETELY FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE!!!!

  • Nice bullseye touchdown on the dot ;-) I just did this yesterday in Urbana, IL. pilot was Cody. Had a blast... $100 well spent.

  • Gene Soucy at the controls. Great pilot and love us AG too!!

  • Same pilot to LOL, good to see he still at it, if I recall correctly he flyes for North West Airlines, Now Delta I Guess.

  • Much of the skin is corrugated, however skinning on the engine mounts, wing leading edges is smooth for less drag.

  • @ 1:55- HA! Try taking a 747 into the grass! lol

  • WOW her tits are reALLY nice! just like mine!

    HEY! lets meet up! MSG me on M.S.N. Oy

  • Why was the skin on this

    plane not corrugated?
