Description
Sole survivor! This is the only Stinson 6000A left in the world. Meticulously restored.
The Stinson Aircraft Company’s last tri-motor was a low-wing monoplane, designed in 1933 as an eight-seat feeder-liner for American Airlines. Featuring an unusual double-tapered wing that, combined with its tubby fuselage and forward-raked windscreen, gave it a markedly sinister appearance, it also boasted retractable undercarriage that left the lower part of the wheels exposed below the engine nacelles while in the raised position, as many pilots forgot to lower the undercarriage on landing.
