Despite its old facade, the aircraft will soon begin taking up passengers at the Liberty Aviation Museum in Port Clinton. The plane has already been crisscrossing the area, with recent flights in Akron and Pontiac, Mich. Visitors in Port Clinton will be able to go up, 10 at a time, in the plane on Aug. 24, and then again Sept. 6-8.

We get adults who say ‘This is my first airplane ride ever,’ and we get little kids.”
