Tri Motor that is! He was landing at the local field and giving ride at $75.00 a pop, I passed having done so a couple of years ago. The plane is sweet the restoration is wonderful. Sorry no photo my camera is DOA, found the water last fishing trip and I haven't replaced it yet.

I found this online though.

   Very cool!
   I did some Winter Maintenance (hydraulics and engine work) on the B-17 Liberty Belle just before her last flight out of Albuquerque. Earned a free ride for it., but missed out due to work. Later, to save the owner $$ she had some poor work done on the fuel system. Burned up on her flight out from the maintenance. No one hurt, but a real shame.  The mechanics should be roasted alive! >:(
  I did get several pics of her on the ramp at Double Eagle II airport here, since I had to drive past her every morning to get to my hangar.
   Here's my favorite:
   
'18 Bonneville T-100, Blue/White
'12 C5 Classic
'06 Electra X AVL w/32mm Mikuni and Gold Star system.
