THANKS TO BARNSTORMERS • I have for sale a very rare Ford BNO-40 aircraft tug . approx 3000 total built by ford most went to the US Navy for carrier or island work, we can find fewer than 30 remaining today. this unit is mechanically superb having been mechanically restored by a previous owner. Body work is beautiful and needs little to be ready for a new coat of navy grey paint. my needs have changed and this machine deserves a place on display with a navy airplane owner. • Contact Tim Mccarter, Owner - located Kenosha, WI USA • Telephone: 262-960-3129 • Posted May 18, 2018

Museum of Mountain Flying wrote:This 1947 21/2 ton Federal flat bed truck was used by Johnson Flying Service for years at Missoula’s airport. It was totally restored by museum members and donations from auto businesses. It has been used in local parades for years. A partial 1946 Aeronca Champ is on the back.
Alaska Aviation Museum wrote:Not an airplane, but this vehicle was affiliated with airplanes from its beginning. Arriving in Alaska in 1915 “before roads,” this truck shuttled mail and passengers between the McCarthy, Alaska train depot and the Kennecott Mine Hotel for 23 years, until the mine closed in 1938. It sat in the ghost town of Kennecott for another 17 years, until the entire town came under the ownership of Cordova Airlines owner Merle “Mudhole” Smith in 1955. It sat as a sign for Smith until bought by Tillie Reeve, wife of Reeve Aleutian Airlines founder and aviation pioneer Bob Reeve. She used it for more than a decade, running errands around Anchorage.
