Anyone remember "Plane Old Advertising" in D/FW area?

Fri Aug 09, 2013 3:42 pm

Many years ago, there was a company in the D/FW area called "Plane Old Advertising" who had an AT-6/SNJ type that they would bring out and set up at your place of business as an advertising eye-catcher. I became aware of them when they had the Texan on display at Huffines Chevrolet on IH-35E in Lewisville. It was right out by the road, and it was a real attention grabber. The Texan was painted "trainer yellow" with WW2 markings, with the company's name and phone number in small black letters on the sides of the fuselage under the horizontal tails. I don't recall seeing an "N" number, but my memory ain't the best. I *may* have photos somewhere, but it would be a "challenge" to find them. Not sure what made me suddenly think of this, but I did an internet search and came up with nothing. Anyone remember those folks? Any info on the Texan? Did they have other airplanes in their inventory?
