    I read that Wally also worked for the Curtis-Wright Aircraft Co. It was then in 1946 that he got the company to start producing the Curtis-Wright trailer. I have one of those limited ones.

    That was great. Love listening to history, airstream’s are iconic and get attention wherever you go always changing and still remain with a classic look. Thanks for sharing

    @8:39, I just watched a video about that exact trailer. Its restoration and it’s purchase back by Airstream.

    Excellent Jon-san,
    Really enjoyed that history stroll. I love that kind of honoring of the past. Amazing to know how inspirational and creative those folks were. That kind of innovation is what is needed more these days.
    Thanks for putting that together!

    You didn't mention that Wally worked or was involved with the aircraft co. Curtis-Wright. At the end of the war, he initiated C-W on the production of travel trailers by that name. Made from 1946 to '49. I own a '48 and have read a little on their history
