damn... tried a wikipedia on tri motor to cheat with but no cigar
did find some interesting facts though like ford making an aircraft, i never
knew that before, even though the engines were not designed by ford

Yeah Ford tried to compete for like two seconds and droped out. The Douglas
DC-3 was to become the Airline of the future. The Tri Motor is and exhaustivly
slow airplane. The one you have seen in the crash was use to give sight seeing
tours and sometimes it towed banners up and down the beach from Santa Barbara to
San Diego. It was a sad sad day when it went in. Almost took out the control
tower to the airport.
