ford#1 if chevy made a airplane it would most likey fall apart in the air
-
did it have an electric starter when first produced way back when?
-
Those are Pratt and Whittney engines, correct?

@ the tri motor used its own control wheels in the cockpit thery wernt from a model T either, that would be too early,
the wheels were wood with three spoke design,
theydidnt have too much drag,
that was the way it was back then, and alot of people dont realize that,
-
ahhh those engines were a pain cause they caused a lot of drag, even with cowlings they made later on.
-
@tastaturenpirat, And they crashed it, the effects were cheezy when they did that.

this plane is in the movie indiana jones and the temple of doom...

Actually Ford used the steering wheel from the Model T for the yoke on the trimotor.
