Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan - Ride in former AS Ford Tri-Motor

Came across this today (http://www.thenews-messenger.com/article/20120626/NEWS01/206260304/Ride-1929-plane):


The Tin Goose EAA Chapter 1247 will offer Ford Tri-Motor rides Thursday through July 4 at the Erie-Ottawa Regional Airport.

The craft was Northwest Airlines' first Ford Tri-Motor in the early 1930s. It also flew for Alaska Airlines, operating out of Fairbanks, and carried smoke jumpers in the 1950s for Johnson Flying Service based in Missoula, Mont


Sounds like an awesome experience :cool:

Thought I had been on that one, but the EAA has another one in Oshkosh. I've flown on that one before, and had a great time.
