Right Seat In The Ford Trimotor

Flying in the right seat of the Ford Trimotor 5-AT-B, “City Of Wichita”passenger aircraft. It first flew on December 1 1928. The Ford Trimotors were nicknamed the “Tin Goose”. Sound on for the sounds of the engines and flying. No music added. I really dislike adding music to videos like this.
