Visitors walking about on the ramp of the Ford Airport, in Dearborn Michigan, during the 1930 Ford Commercial Reliability Tour. Many are lined up by a fence, looking at a squadron of U.S. Army Air Corps Curtiss P-1 Hawk pursuit airplanes parked in the grass. 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. Camera moves and focuses on those aircraft. A light plane is seen inflight overhead. One of the P-1s taxis on the ramp. 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. Two men greet her (one wearing a cowboy hat, of sorts). She turns and smiles for the camera. 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. A solo stunt airplane is seen next.
