This video answered many questions for me, and I'm not just talking about the name of the background music. I came here while trying to find out why Henry Ford abandoned his "Flying flivver" and I found the answer in this video, along with the answer to some other questions I had. In the case of the flying flivver, I learned from this video that it was due to the death of the Ford's test pilot who was a personal friend. The other mystery that has always bugged me is why did the Ford Tri-Motor have a corrugated fuselage when the corrugations would have been much less aerodynamic than a smooth skin. That answer is also in this video-- In the case of the Tri-Motor's corrugated body, I learned from this video that the ridges made the metal stronger; allowing thinner metal to be used, and that made the aircraft lighter. This was one way the cloth used in earlier aircraft could be replaced with metal. This information started me on a train of thought, which answered other questions I had about the Tri-Motor. I reasoned that as the air speed of a Tri-Motor increases, drag from the ridges in the skin will also increase, until a point is reached where the benefit from weight savings due to the corrugations will be overcome by lift lost to an increase in drag from the corrugations. Apparently, the cruising speed of the Tri-Motor was so slow that the weight savings of the corrugated metal outweighed (no pun intended) the increased drag from the corrugated fuselage of the plane. From this line of thought, I arrived at the answer to my second question, which was, if corrugated aircraft skin is stronger then why was it abandoned. I concluded that the metal planes which succeeded the Tir-Motor didn't have have a corrugated skin, because they had a higher cruising speed, where aerodynamic drag from a corrugated skin became a bigger problem than the weight of the plane's fuselage. In other words, later planes didn't have a corrugated skin, because they flew faster. Which leads to the next question I had, which is, what technological breakthrough made the corrugations unnecessary. My assumption is that it was not one thing, but a combination of many things. My guess is, improved manufacturing processes, combined with lighter aluminum alloys, and the curved surfaces of more streamlined planes made non-corrugated aircraft panels stronger and this made the corrugated aircraft panels obsolete. It's also likely, that more powerful and efficient aircraft engines that were developed in the Thirties played a part in doing away with the corrugated fuselage, because weight became less critical with the introduction of more powerful engines. So, thanks again to Barden Aviation for posting this video which cleared up some questions I've been carrying around for many years. And, I found out the name of the Amos and Andy theme music to boot!

The organ music would be period appropriate for a news reel of this type. It is clever, an historic touch. In everything I've read, Henry was tyrannical to Edsel; deliberately sabotaging many of his innovations. It is most interesting to hear that Henry gave the credit to Edsel for the success of the aviation experiment. Also, the body language does not indicate any hostility on either party. Edsel looks rather fit and dapper. Good show.

A fascinating film and the narration was very informative. Everyone is bitching about the organ music, but I have fond memories of that piece of music from my childhood, back in the nineteen forties. So, I'd like thank the film's producer for using that music, although adding a little variety would have been better. That music is so familiar, but I can't recall the name and that's driving me nuts. It seems like it may have been the organ music used on a popular radio soap opera from that era, but I can't recall which one. In any case, the music probably pre-dates the soap opera. Will someone please tell me what that music is called before my head explodes? Also, several reasons were given by the narrator for why Henry Ford got out of the airplane business. The reason I heard when I was a kid was that it was due the Wiley Post crash that killed both Post and Will Rogers. According to the story, Post and Ford were good friends. Ford had lost other friends in plane crashes and the death of Post was the last straw, so Ford decide to get out of the aircraft business. Maybe that's only a rumor, because Post wasn't flying a Ford Plane, but for more than sixty years I've believed it was the Post crash that caused Henry Ford to get out of aviation. I learned a lot from this video and the reasons given by the narrator make more sense than the story I heard all those years ago.

I undoubtedly remember hearing the song on the radio at the beginning and end of the Amos and Andy show, and also later when the radio show moved to TV. You got to me just in time, right before my head exploded from hearing that song running in my brain on an endless loop. I kept thinking I'd eventually come up with the name of the song if I thought about it long enough. But, I never would have remembered the name, because I never knew the name of the song until today, thanks to you and your video. It only took me seventy years to learn the name of that song. I'm amazed that after my comment people continued to complain about your background music. Don't they bother to read the hundreds of negative comments that have already been made about the music before they add another negative comment? I have to admit that a couple of the negative comments were funny, but it's too bad that your interesting video has been overshadowed by the reaction to the background music. I'll bet that's something you never expected. I have a website where I sell a little gadget I invented and for background music I used the theme song from the old Hal Roach Our Gang comedies. Younger people will remember the music from decades later when the Our Gang comedies were syndicated for TV and renamed The Little Rascals. If you had used that as your background music, then I'll bet you'd have received nothing but positive comments about the music, because everybody has fond childhood memories of watching those old Our Gang comedies (AKA The Little Rascals).

The organ is a bit droning after a while, but early in the film I appreciated it because prior to about 1928 all movies were without sound of their own and every theater around America had an organ and organist to give audio spirit to the film. But the music would adapt to the scenes appropriately. That is, the music would follow the story.. excited, spirited, angry or moody.. But I can tell that is real pipe organ just too much of the same. Unless you have your own organist I guess you're stuck with what you can find.

The Hammond Organ was an American invention. The B3 is wonderful when used judiciously with other instruments. The Church Organ helped create the great divide between older and younger people. Some churches still have not learned that most young people hate the organ. Episcopal/Anglican churches still have, for the most part, not learned this important lesson. It's pretty tough finding a praise band in an Episcopal/Anglican church. They would rather see their churches die than try different music.

3:32 Pilot looks like WW 1 U.S. ace Eddie Rickenbacker. Must have been an inaugural flight to attract such a high ranking celeb., but that would be a piece of cake for Ford!!

Horroratio Neilsen No kidding, Eddie Rickenbacker. My parents first went up in an airplane piloted by him at an Akron, Ohio, airshow. My father thought it would quiet my mother's fears to be told Rickenbacker would be the pilot but as she had never heard of him, it didn't do the trick. They had a big fight over her not wanting to fly, but they made up and had a memorable experience, what with the flight and my mother's wool dress shrinking to a mini in a cloudburst, to her future parents-in-law's amusement and sympathy. Everyone was air-minded in Akron and my father had, until he lost it, a Duraluminum comb souvenir of the dirigible he saw there. My father and his father never gave up their interest in flight, and were thrilled with each new advance.

That Stout five-passenger plane that didn't fly well looked pretty nice to me. Too bad they couldn't have refined it to get a more stable plane.

It sounds like Stout did NOT have a good eye for designing planes. They did NOT handle well. Henry Ford was the right man at the right time. He build affordable cars which allowed him to be in the position to build B-24's for the WW2 effort. If he had not been successful, that factory might not have been there.

BD they say at 20:56 that Admiral Byrd used a Tri-Motor to fly over North Pole and it's at Henry Ford's Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. You ever hear about Byrd's Antarctic expedition? He claims landing the plane in a green valley, with forests and meeting a strange people who took him to someone they called "the master" !!! He kind of went crazy.. or he was telling the truth, and the gov made him look crazy to hide the truth!

Henry Ford was the Elon Musk of his day. If he got an idea, he just pushed ahead and built it. This was back when No one could under cut the price of a new Ford. It allowed Henry to indulge in his every whim and idea. He stopped making Tri-motors because his one year output was the worlds next three years of need. What a strange position to be in. WW2 sort of saved Henry from himself by taking up all of that spare manufacturing capability.
