Inter City Air
Lines Stinson SM-1F Detroiter
NC8468 (c/n M513)
I am not completely sure whether this Inter City Air Lines is the same
company as that of the
Travel Air of the following entry. Certainly this example does
not have the roundel logo of
the latter. The source of this image is the San Diego Air &
Space Museum archives.
However, since the aircraft is standing in snow, it would appear to be
more likely that the
photo was taken at Boston rather than Lindberg Field!
Incidentally, four of this model
Detroiters were exported to China for operation on air mail
services.
