A legendary pilot maker. When was the last time you saw a PT-19 up close?
#TDIH in 1939: The Fairchild company landed a contract with the U.S. Army to provide a total of 270 PT-19 aircraft. Read more about the PT-19A Cornell in our collection: s.si.edu/3DN209o

Cary Cosgrove and Rob Zettel's AirCam graced the cover of the June 2022 issue of EAA Sport Aviation magazine and is so gorgeous we figured we'd revisit it a couple months later! Who's had the chance to fly or ride in an AirCam? 📷 Jim Raeder

This is straight out of a horror movie.. This guy has been flying a stolen plane over Tupelo, threatening to crash into WalMart on West Main. Now he’s almost 50 miles NW, almost like he’s heading toward Memphis. But he’s just making circles over small towns. Bizarre.
