The Ford Tri-Motor was developed from the Stout 2-AT, with the ugly Stout 3-AT trimotor looking like a step backwards. Ford Air Transport Service flew a number of 2-ATs between Ford factories, but also on America's first commercial air mail routes from 1926. Note additional 'Ford Air Port of Dearborn' titles on the tail. Florida Airways, the forerunner of Eastern Airlines, was another 2-AT operator. Photo from: Wayne State University
