Ford Tri-Motor Tour Stop

What is probably a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is the Ford Tri-Motor Tour Stop scheduled for Sep. 2-6 in North Little Rock. A beautifully restored 1929 Ford Tri-Motor Airliner owned by the Experimental Aircraft Association is on display at the North Little Rock Municipal Airport. The craft was the world’s first mass-produced airliner. During the plane’s stop in North Little Rock, visitors can take a ride on the vintage aircraft. Flights are $50 for Experimental Aircraft Association members and $60 for non-members. Visit www.flytheford.org to learn the fascinating history of the plane.
