Episode 55 --- How Ford’s Tri-Motor Airplane Helped Create The Airline Industry of Today.
Matt Anderson, the John and Horace Dodge Curator of Transportation at The Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan, speaks candidly about the early days of The Ford Motor Company and its foray into aviation via its revolutionary Tri-Motor airplane. Although the Ford Tri-Motor was in production for less than a decade, its influence spawned much of what we take for granted about today’s passenger airline industry. Lots of interesting tidbits make for a lively episode.
