In the late 1950s Ottawa, Kansas-based Chuck LeMaster bought this 1929 Ford Tri-Motor originally intending to use it as an agricultural spray plane. After it was badly damaged in a wind storm the Experimental Aircraft Association helped him rebuild it, and at the time of the photo it was being used to tour the USA, "offering rides to aviation and history enthusiasts alike".
