• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Would the Real "Winnie Mae" Please start your engine.

Wiley Post Had 2 "Winnie Mae" Vegas
  1. NC7954 later changed to NR7954
  2. a Vega 5C NC105W later changed to NR105W. This is the aircraft currently in the Air and Space museum. This plane was (Is) white with purple and blue trim.

A third Lockheed Vega 5B named "Winnie Mae" also in honor of Wiley Post's corporate backers daughter was NC905Y. It was white with blue trim but was never flown by Post.
Hope this is of some use
