What a beautiful flying piece of history! A Ford Tri-Motor has come to the Covington facility in Okmulgee! You never know what cool things your gonna see come through here! Its maiden flight was Dec. 1, 1928, with Transcontinental Air Transport, a precursor of TWA. It’s flown trips over the Grand Canyon and the Boulder Dam and in 1937, went to Honduras, where it was flown until 1942. The Tri-Motor is powered by three Pratt & Whitney R-985s #tinGoose #Trimotor #FordTrimotor #taildragger #aviationphotography #aviationphoto #aviation #aviationlovers #aviationgeek #aviationdaily #AvNerd #AvGeek #AviationNerd #AviationGeek #PlaneSpotting #PlaneSpotter #aircraftmaintenance #aviationlove #aircraftenginemaintenance #instagramaviation #IGAviation #IGAircraft #avlove #pilot #privatepilot #radialengines #aircraft #avlover

关于我们
Founded in 1972, Covington Aircraft is a world-leading aircraft engine maintenance, repair and overhaul facility specializing in the PT6A turbine engine and R-985 and R-1340 radial engines. We are a Pratt & Whitney Canada certified Distributor and Designated Overhaul Facility (DDOF), and provide world-class corporate and agricultural aircraft service. Call us at (918) 932-3993. In addition to engine maintenance, repair and overhaul, we perform engine installations, operate state-of-the-art engine testing facilities, and maintain a complete inventory of engine parts and accessories. We’re centrally located in the U.S. near Tulsa, Oklahoma and Tulsa International Airport (TUL). We also have the advantage of utilizing Okmulgee Regional Airport (OKM), a smaller, more private runway. Covington performs all stages of engine repair and overhaul work in-house. We perform Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) to verify the integrity of critical parts prior to use, and use computer-controlled machinery for necessary machining, grinding, and balancing prior to assembly. An on-site Quality Control inspector oversees every step of the overhaul process, and when a rebuild is complete, the engine testing and run-in is performed at our own engine testing facilities to verify the highest quality rebuild possible.

Clint "Ricochet" Cottrell fires up the R-1340 with the new cylinder put on by the Covington team! As Clint says, "There are few things as satisfying as flying with someone who hasn't flown a T6 in 50 years and being there as they relive the sounds, feel, and smell of the Texan." Nothing like that feeling! #R1340 #T6Texan #SNJ #warbird #warbirds #aviationphotography #aviationphoto #aviation #aviationlovers #aviationgeek #aviationdaily #AvNerd #AvGeek #AviationNerd #AviationGeek #PlaneSpotting #PlaneSpotter #aircraftmaintenance #aviationlove #aircraftenginemaintenance #instagramaviation #IGAviation #IGAircraft #avlove #pilot #privatepilot #radialengines #aircraft #avlover
