What an experience this was! Yesterday I got a chance to be a passenger in the 1928 Ford Tri-Motor airplane that is at the airport in Bloomington through the weekend. I can’t recommend this enough! You can get all of the details as to where you can get your tickets HERE.
The plane is truly beautiful. When I stepped out onto the runway to board, you could just feel the history. Once I boarded, I was blown away by how great the wood work was. When they say this airplane was luxury when it was introduced, I completely understood.

The real joy of the experience came once the engines started though

The take-off was a fun rush. Even though the plane is 90 years old, it brings plenty of power!

I did not want the trip to end! As I do with all of my airplane trips though, I always get a little nervous for the landing. I had nothing to be nervous about with the Ford Tri-Motor. The landing was as smooth as any plane I’ve ever been on.
Another happy landing 👍 pic.twitter.com/Isip0baP4r

What an incredible trip this was! Get your tickets now. The plane will only be here until June 17th and tickets are going fast. Use the link at the beginning of the post to get the info on how to get your tickets. If you get your tickets in advance, they are cheaper than at the gate.
Enjoy this piece of history as much as I did!
