Universal Air Lines System  Fokker F-32 Atlantic  124M                   (c/n  1201)                       

                               

                                    The Fokker F-32 was the first four engined aircraft designed and built in the United States.
                                    Ten were built at Teterboro in 1927/28.    Universal Airlines was originally founded as the
                                    Continental  Airlines Corporation in July 1928, but when services began in September, the
                                    name was changed.  It originally provided service between Chicago and Cleveland.     In
                                    December 1928 the company absorbed Northern Air Lines and Robertson Aircraft when
                                    it became known as Universal Air Lines System.  This greatly expanded its theater of
                                    operations to Minneapolis and St. Louis.    Universal itself was absorbed into the ever
                                    increasing Aviation Corporation (AVCO) in 1929.
