New Standard D-25

New Standard D-25

This 1929 New Standard D-25 with a Wright R-760-8 radial engine is a 5-seat joy-riding aircraft.  Four passenger seating in the front open cockpit can get a bit chummy.  It’s best to know your fellow passengers well.   The pilot sits in the open rear cockpit.  And yes, it was giving rides; although not fully loaded with passengers.  Perhaps, the pilot was playing it safe given the relatively short runway.
