Early American airlines embraced the Ford Tri-Motor. It was rugged, built of metal rather than wood and fabric. It was reliable, able to land safely with just one of its three engines. And it was versatile. Tri-Motors flew passengers and freight for public carriers, and served as executive transports, traveling showrooms and aerial delivery vans for private companies. Ford built nearly 200 Tri-Motors from 1926 to 1933.
