A trip to the airport

We biked down to the airport and found the EAA (experimental aircraft association) museum in Marathon and found many airplanes and models on display.

this is a GREAT wind vane.

one of the outside displays


This was a "luxury aircraft" in its day


Add very cute little single seater
 As a bonus, they was a 1929 Ford Tri-motor at the airport giving rides (for a $70.00 fee). That plane is almost 90 years old and still flying, just incredible! Here's a link to info about Ford trimotors.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Trimotor 

They had just started the far engine

notice the passengers?
