Russell Boardman intended to depart on a transatlantic flight with this aircraft in the weekend of 5 September 1930 but it was severely damaged when catching fire during refuelling at Boston on 4 September (not 2 September). NR761W was rebuilt at a cost of some $25,000 and flew all the way from New York to Istanbul non-stop in July 1931, no longer promoting the 1930 American Legion Convention in Boston.

Aircraft reportedly given in 1930 by roller bearing manufactuer Henry Tinken to his son, who was trained to fly it by Lt Ralph Wickford. Apparently this Tri-Motor won a race for 'transport ships' at the National Air Races in 1931. By July 1933, it was the largest plane owned by Shell and flown on a tour around New England that summer by Maj Ervin and Wickford again, taking Shell distributors, dealers and friends on pleasure flights. It was furnished with six leather and wicker chairs and a large green leather divan. Sold to Colombian air force in 1935. To AN-AAD in Nicaragua, XH-TAI in Honduras.

'First passenger plane to run between Boston and NYC.' Colonial Air Transport was slow to upgrade from Fairchild FC-2 mailplanes to true airliners on the CAM-1 route. Juan Trippe had ordered Fokker Trimotors for Colonial as early as 1925, but he was fired by the conservative board. This Ford first flew on 20 March 1929. The aircraft name worn here was changed just before or after the naming ceremony - see other photos of NC9675. Photo by: Leslie Jones / Boston Public Library

Photo dated July 1929 and Colonial's new Trimotor now wears a smart logo on the tailfin and wingtips. As illustrated by the other photos of N9475, the aircraft name has been changed from Nokomis to Nagomos, or Nacomos according to the only reference we found, but at close inspection the third letter looks like a G here. We have no idea what Nagomos or Nacomos is. NC9675 crashed into Boston Harbor immediately after take-off on 5 June 1930. One passenger was killed. Photo by: Leslie Jones / Boston Public Library

A painter in a Curtiss overall is changing the name of this new Tri-Motor from Nokomis to Nagomos or perhaps Nacomos - see other photos of NC9675. The press reported the plane was christened Nakomis (sic) on Sunday 14 April 1929. The name change was done that very day or the next day. The photo is dated 15 April, but it seems likely that the ladies and the press photographer were present at the naming ceremony. Nokomis is a female Native American name. We have no clue what Nagomos or Nagomos is, but as we see here a name was chosen that required minimal changes. Photo by: Leslie Jones / Boston Public Library

Colonial Western Airways operated the Sikorsky S-38 between Albany and Cleveland. In 1928 it became a division of the Colonial Airways Corporation holding, together with Colonial Air Transport and Canadian Colonial Airways, but all three airlines continued to operate under their own names. Colonial Western was fully merged into American Airways in March 1931. That same month this amphibian was used for rescue work following the sinking of an old sealing ship, SS Viking, off the Horse Islands, Newfoundland, during a movie shoot. The famous Bernt Balchen piloted the aircraft after speeding to Boston by train. Photo by: Leslie Jones / Boston Public Library

Colonial Western Airways operated the Sikorsky S-38 between Albany and Cleveland. In 1928 it became a division of the Colonial Airways Corporation holding, together with Colonial Air Transport and Canadian Colonial Airways, but all three airlines continued to operate under their own names. Colonial Western was fully merged into American Airways in March 1931. That same month this amphibian was used for rescue work following the sinking of an old sealing ship, SS Viking, off the Horse Islands, Newfoundland, during a movie shoot. The famous Bernt Balchen piloted the aircraft after speeding to Boston by train. Photo by: Leslie Jones / Boston Public Library

For The Detroit News, operating an L-5 Vega, NC32M, was not a whim. In 1934 they bought this new L-9 Orion. A radio reporter could broadcast from the plane - WWJ, on the tailfin, was the call sign of the Detroit News Radiophone. There was even a photo camera installed in the fairing on the left wing. NC799W was worn earlier by the newspaper's Pitcairn autogyro. The Orion was requisitioned as 42-62601 in 1942. Scrapped after an accident in 1947. Photo from: The Henry Ford

The US Navy acquired five COA-1 amphibians from the US Army. Receiving the OL-2 designation, they were intended for the 1925 MacMillan Arctic Expedition, with Richard Byrd leading an aviation element of three Loenings: NA-1, NA-2 and NA-3. NA-3 arrived at Squantum on 11 June 1925 and the photo is assumed taken that day. The pilot was Floyd Bennett. Byrd liked Bennett and put him in NA-1. The following year they headed for the North Pole together in a civilian Fokker F.VIIa-3m, Josephine Ford, which Byrd had coded BA-1. Photo by: Leslie Jones / Boston Public Library

Donald MacMillan (1874-1970), standing on the float, made over 30 expeditions to the Arctic. In 1931 he used this white and orange Vega on an air survey and photo expedition to Labrador and Greenland, sponsored by Multicolor film. Built as an L-1 Vega in 1929, the plane had first been used by an operator in Montana. After MacMillan it had many owners. In the 1960s it was used for movie work by Paul Mantz and Frank Tallman, and registered N965Y to play Amelia Earhart's Vega NC965Y. It is preserved in the Henry Ford museum in Dearborn.

To our surprise the black S-55 in this nice photo is an early YH-19, one of two tested in Korea. Perhaps the helo is seen in its last hours, since Joe Baugher's website reports: 'With 3rd ARS, crash landed in mudflats near Inchon, South Korea May 2, 1952 after engine failed while returning from evacuation mission. All 3 crew survived and were rescued.' The helicopter did not survive. Photo from: National Archives at College Park, Maryland

One of the B-17s converted to airliners in Sweden, photographed perhaps in September 1945 - the photo was found among pictures of the American aircraft exhibition at Kastrup. Supposedly SE-BAN was only registered on 10 October 1945, but one source says 10 September 1945. The aircraft does not yet wear SILA Swedish Air Lines markings. Sister aircraft SE-BAK flew the first Stockholm - New York service in late June 1945. Photo from: Vejle Stadsarkiv
