The Saga of the Tin Goose : The Story of the Ford Trimotor
(It was the brainchild of Henry Ford and inventor William ...)
It was the brainchild of Henry Ford and inventor William Bushnell Stout. It was the Ford Trimotor, afftectionally called the Tin Goose, the first all-metal passenger plane built in the U.S. Only 200 were ever manufactured, but they launched the nation's first regular scheduled air flights, introducing almost everything we have in U.S. air travel today--from stewardesses to meals aboard planes to concrete runways and lighted airfields. Byrd flew over the South Pole in a Tin Goose, FDR dreamed up the New Deal flying in one of these planes to his Presidential nomination in 1932. Lindbergh inaugurated the nation's first transcontinental air passenger service in another one. All the companies that became major American airlines started up with this plane,and when the Boeings and Douglas took over, the Ford trimotors unbelievabky kept flying commercially for another half century, hauling mining equipment over the Andes, ferrying passengers from Put--in-Bay Island in Lake Erie to the mainland, and dusting crops in the Midwest. This edition is an updated version of the orignal hard-cover edition published in 1971, and the final chapter tells where the remaining Tin Gooses can be seen and flown today..
