FSX Grand Canyon Airlines Ford Tri-Motor

Grand Canyon Airlines livery for the Ford Tri-Motor brings classic desert air-tour character to your hangar with period-correct markings and a polished finish across exterior details. Designed for FSX, it requires the payware Cr1 Software Ford Tri-Motor and pairs neatly with the aircraft’s vintage virtual cockpit and early airline atmosphere.

description="Nicknamed the "Tin Goose," the Ford 4-AT Tri-Motor pioneered early airline and air transport routes. In 1925, the Ford Motor Company bought the Stout Metal Plane Company to gain rights to the Tri-Motor design. In all, 198 Ford Tri-Motors were built. During its years of regular service in the late 1920s and early 1930s, the Ford Tri-Motor helped popularize commercial flight and promote the safety of flying to travelers."
