The Stout 3-AT tri motor prototype aircraft at Ford Airport in Dearborn, Michigan

Views of the Stout 3-AT prototype during engine testing at Ford Airport. The prototype Stout 3-AT airplane seen parked with engines running. Several persons go in and out of her cabin, while three men in caps stand atop the fuselage around another, wearing a fedora, in the open cockpit above the cabin. Several different views of the plane are shown. One, from under the right wing, fades out as the engines are shut down and the propellers slow and stop. In final scene, a man leaving the airplane, drops his hat (fedora) and retrieves it near the airplane's tail. (Note: Among other differences, from later Ford Tri-Motor airplanes, the open air cockpit above its cabin is a particularly distinctive feature of this ungainly Stout 3-AT prototype aircraft.)

Scene shifts to closer to terminal building where visitors stroll amongst a variety of planes parked on the ramp. Buildings of the Greenfield Village are seen in the background, especially the Clock Tower. In near background, the squadron of P-1 airplanes have engines running.

Next, woman aviator, Nancy Hopkins is seen in the cockpit of her Viking Kitty Hawk B4 biplane, NC30V. She is wearing helmet and goggles, and appears to have just parked her airplane.

Then she removes helmet and goggles and climbs down from the cockpit, to pose next to her airplane, displaying the number “22” on its fuselage. On the plane’s tail, is written,”Kittyhawk” in large letters, followed by “ Kittyhawk Flying Boat Company, New Haven, Conn.” Camera shows formations of U.S. Army P-1s in flights of three, airborne overhead.
