Ford Tri-Motor Flight Jun 21st, 2024 Lees Summit EAA

The 1929 EAA Ford TriMotor was giving short rides, seven passengers at a time out of the Lees Summit Airports the weekend of Jun 21st, 2024. I was there Friday morning laid down a one-hundred dollar bill and got a dollar in change for the ride. About 15 minute taxi and flight. Sounds short but seemed long and good vsby so great views of the lakes of eastern Jackson, County, I-470, Unity Village and the landing back at LXT - call sign for the airport. A couple of short glitches when i thought camera was on pause - just wait them out. One-hundred ninety-nine TriMotors were built. Six are still airworthy.
