Double AbandonmentOn Family’s Property
This plane was abandoned years ago and can be found in South America and, for sure, it will not be pulled from where it is now – maybe! A family purchased the land that once owned a lean-to airstrip and where this plane can be found. But, what is interesting about this land is that it not only has a single abandoned plane but more like two because, as you can see, there is a smaller plane with its cockpit and front galley still in place. We hope they will not overlook these amazing pieces of art and try to see what they can source from these aircraft that can be useful to any project they might have to work on.

Ford 5-AT-C, “Tin Goose”
If you know anything about the Ford 5-AT-C, then you will know the all-too famous names they give it – Ford Tri-Motor or The Tin Goose. It used to be attached to the Royal Australian Air Force and could haul a total of up to 4,000 pounds at any time. Besides, it could hold up to 17 passengers and 2 pilots at a time. From the 1920s to the 1930s, close to 200 Tin Goose’s were designed, and only about 15 of them are still in operation today. From what we see, this abandoned aircraft we see here is not a part of the 15 serviceable machines and will be stuck here, possibly forever.
