Quite the performer

[olderndirt]

This is a Bellanca Aircruiser.  Those curving devices under each wing were fuel tanks but did supply extra lift so this was a real tiger.  That round engine provided 715 hp - the useful load was more than the empty weight and it cruised in the 150 mph range - all in 1929 (wasn't born for another nine years).

For 1929, that's very impressive. Nice screenshot too.

It's a nifty airplane, that's sure.
