Only One Of Its Kind. Restored to Perfection The good looking Kreutzer Air Coach K-5 was a "baby tri-motor" high wing monoplane that was powered with 3 five cylinder Kinner K5 engines of 100 hp each. The was ample room and good comfort for six in a spacious and well appointed cabin, offering heat and ventilation, the safety of shatter-proof glass, with a promise for an extra margin of safety and performance provided by three 100 hp engines. It was designed for smaller airlines operating over rugged and desolate country. The Air Coach was used initially by airlines in Arizona and Louisiana. Production of the Air Coach was suspended in the early 1930's. This is the only surviving example of the Kreutzer Air Coach with an incredible pioneering history. The aircraft was recovered in Mexico over eight years ago by between 22-­25 men using 25 pack animals and they hacked a road through the jungle to get the aircraft out.

Beautifully restored to concourse standards. The only surviving Kreutzer Air Coach in the World.
