My great grandfather used to drive 65 miles in a Model T to watch these birds fly out of Kinloch field, now Lambert International Airport. He wanted to fly. Great grandmother threatened divorce if he did..!

when my grandmother was a little girl she got taken for a ride in the first airplane that she had ever seen. It was a Jenny !

She's beautiful. You guys are doing an awesome job keeping her flying. I've been to the USAF museum 3 times and didn't see everything there

Beautiful Plane! Arguably the first practically usable planes ever produced.

My grandfather trained in Champaign Urban and flew these in various locations. I have original photos with squadrons up above the clouds, American and French Generals Field Marshalls and hand drawn route maps with colored pencil.

Anybody else notice the C-130 on the restoration ramp? What's up with that? New display or being used for parts?

@USAFmuseum 7 лет назад

That one is used for the 711th Human Performance Wing.

Your great grand father as you know, flew one of these in the 1920s

Thank you so much for saving this piece of history. Read in a book that the plane was used in 1918 during WWI in France. Amazing facts 65mph only to fly! WOW!

Too bad it crashed, but glad you're alright

Fabulous video! Answered my question from another video about how the ailerons are pulled down, still can't figure out how the are pulled up.

It is a pity the annoying two stroke engine noise in the background.

Green Acres had an episode about this plain.

I wonder if you could get a reproduction made and I wonder if the original had seat belts so if you were doing acrobats up there you wouldn't fall out
