Pieces of History at the World Free Fall Convention

Thomas Yates of Inkster, Michigan writes: This is a shot I took at the World Free Fall Convention circa 1995. All three aircraft were being used as jump ships. The aircraft to the right is not a Ford Trimotor, but a Bushmaster. When I saw the three together on the ramp, I realized I had a good piece of airline history sitting in front of me. Due to the way they were parked the only way I could get all three was in this shot.
