Remark

  • On display at the America by Air exhibition at the National Air and Space Museum. Built in 1927, this PA-5 carried airmail along the eastern United States. The service would lead to the formation of Eastern Air Lines. This aircraft became a crop-duster till it was repurchased by employees of Eastern Air Lines, restored and presented to Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, the company president and famous World War 1 ace.
