The first step toward modern U.S. air transportation was taken with the Ford Tri-Motor. Making transcontinental air travel a reality, this aircraft reached peak production in 1929 and featured all-metal construction. Carrying up to eight passengers, the Ford Tri-Motor was the first aircraft to provide airline service across the United States. Reclining seats, restroom facilities and a separate baggage compartment provided new levels of passenger comfort never before available.
