One of a Kind

Boeing 40, originally uploaded by Cielo Azul Images.

This afternoon we had the pleasure of hearing a unique sound...a Pratt and Whitney Wasp engine bolted onto the front of a Boeing 40, the only one of it's kind flying in the world today. It was neat to imagine the things this airplane has seen since it was made in the 1920's, and the countless stories it's pilot's could tell. The aircraft is based at the same airport that I am training at, Felts Field, WA. Last month, it had the opportunity to fly alongside the new Boeing 787 for a photo shoot. The pictures can be found online.
