The Historic Stinson SM-8A Junior: Almost 100 Years in the Air!

See the historic 1930 built Stinson SM-8A Junior in action! This rare aircraft is seen landing at Bern in Switzerland, and its powerful Lycoming R680 with 210 horsepower engine provides a smooth and steady ride. Unbelievable that this good old aircraft is almost 100 years in the air! In a world where old planes are becoming more and more rare, the sight of an airworthy Stinson aircraft is a true gem. Marvel in awe at the beauty of this rare bird soaring through the sky.

This Stinson Junior is truly a remarkable aircraft. With its Lycoming R-680 nine-cylinder radial engine and 210 horsepower, it's no wonder it's still a beloved aircraft among enthusiasts after nearly 100 years. The fact that NC418M, also known as the Queen of the Cowlitz, has been so beautifully preserved is a testament to the incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into building it. It's amazing to think that this aircraft has been flying for 93 years and still remains a favorite among vintage aviation enthusiasts. Its timeless design and impressive capabilities are truly something to be admired. Do you have any favorite vintage aircraft?
