This is a 4AT (call sign "little Ford")... My friend also flies the Port Clinton Ohio museum's 5AT (call sign "big Ford"). The 5AT was leased to EAA for several years and it too typically hauls rides at Airventure but the lease ran out this year so EAA did not have use of it. My friend is retired and for the last couple years he has flown around the country quite a bit in both airplanes hauling rides at various airports.

I got to go for one ride right seat in "Big Ford" several years ago but only got about a minute at the controls that time.
