Early passenger air service

[Gerry M]

From a recent visit to the Evergreen Air Museum. Located in McMinnville, Oregon, now the home of the "Spruce Goose". Amazing displays, from Wright Bros era, WWI, WWII, Korean War, Vietnam and more. Huge building, jammed with aircraft, moon lander and rover. Too much for one day. Needless to say, the "Goose" overshadows everything in size, but the SR71 Blackbird was a real focal point for me. I hope these photos attach properly. #1 early airport shuttle bus, #2 Ford Trimotor airliner, #3 Trimotor passengrer cabin. R2a, CV 25/4, Fuji Superia extra.

Hi,

These are great!

Why not consider re-posting these on the W/NW thread for the "Daring Young Men in Their Flying Machines"?

Go to Forums, scroll down to W/NW forum and you'll find it!

Alternatively, it's a fairly active thread (a page or two down at most) where you can open it up and do a Post Reply.

OK George, I'll try. I haven't been much of a poster, but am going to try and do better.

Well done photos of a very interesting place. If I ever get to Oregon again, it is a definite must see.

Made me Google.

Not to be confused with a Swoose.

Gerry, thanks. I appreciate your pictures. My other passion, aside from family and Voigtlanders, is vintage aircraft especially of the military variety. Again thanks fo sharing.
