KREUTZER K-3 NC211M

NC211M was manufactured in 1929. Its registration was cancelled October 8, 1939, earning it a relatively short life span. The last owner of record (in 1939) was James L.Endicott, whose address was recorded by the Department of Commerce as the National Bureau of Standards, Washington, DC.

The Kreutzer series were designed by Albin K.. Peterson (not a Register pilot. The company's test pilot was Henry Ogden.

This airplane flew behind three engines and landed twice at Tucson. The pilot both times was Howard F. Maish, and the airplane was based at Santa Monica, CA Clover Field. Both times Maish carried three passengers, O.M Walker, Don Moyle and W. Sullivan. The first visit was on Thursday, August 22, 1929 at 11:50AM. You'll notice a discrepancy between the date of manufacture (8/28) and the day the airplane landed at Tucson (8/22).

Regardless, Maish recorded their destination as Cleveland, OH, the site of the National Air Races that year. Their next landing was on Saturday, September 7, 1929. They were returning west from Cleveland.
