Commercial passenger airplane in 1951. DC-3. Scanned film with significant grain.
The airplane shown is a Stearman PT-17 biplane which was used by the US Army and US Navy to train pilots leading up to, and during, WWII.  The airplane was used in basic, or primary, training of new pilots.  The photo shows the full airplane from the right front quarter view.  One can see the silhouette of the pilot's head in the cockpit.  The engine is not running.  The markings on the lower wing can be seen and show US Army.
