Tonight's Closet Aviation Find

[rpadula]

A copy of Aero Digest (including Aviation Engineering)!

Date: February 1937
Cost: 35 cents

On the cover: the New twin-engined Beechcraft Model 18, and above it, the Jacobs-powered Model C-17-L.

Spied inside - and uploaded just for Tom Downey - an ad for the Fairchild 24!

They were first class aircraft in their day..

I'd love a copy of the Ads

The ad says 440 lbs payload and "split" flaps. Is that right?

I love "carrying 3 at less than 2 1/2 cents per mile"!

Cool!

At Smoketown an F71 is being re-built -- it's an absolute work of art.
