http://www.alexisparkinn.com/biplane_rides!.htm If you've ever had the urge to experience aviation the way it was almost 80 years ago, this is your chance. It's just not every day you get to fly in a 1929 Travel Air! That is very cool. When you said 1929 Travel Air, I was thinking of a completely different airplane. I took a ride in a '29 Travel Air about a decade ago at an Antique Aircraft Assoc. fly-in, but it was a 6 seat 6000B model. It looks like Travel Air was a busy airplane company in 1929. Not only did they make the 3 seater and 6 seater, but they fielded the Mystery Ship at the Cleveland Air Races. It's surprising how many are still in the air. I rode in this one : http://airminded.net/ta6000/ta6_1oc.jpg Looks like this 6000B is still flying in Air Taxi Service in Alaska : http://www.alaskaseaplanes.com/nc9084/nc9084%20web.html And you were worried about Piper supplying parts for 25 yr. old airplanes! :-))) John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180) -- Message posted via AviationKB.com http://www.aviationkb.com/Uwe/Forums...ation/200706/1 |
