Rapid Air Lines Corp. moved from Rapid City (SD) to Omaha (NB) in early 1930 and at the same time changed its name to Rapid Air Transport Inc. This Bellance is seen here carrying both names. The logo also carries the airline's slogan "Safe and Sane Flying". The photo date is quoted as 29 Oct 1929, but this pre-dates the name change so may not be correct. Photo by: Nathaniel L.
