Price: $95
Giclee on canvas print
Image size: 9 x 14 inches

In 1998 the S. C. Johnson & Son company made a re-enactment aerial expedition to Brazil, flying an exact replica of the company’s original 1935 Sikorsky S-38. Shadowing the S-38 most of the way was the company’s Cessna C-208 Caravan. As part of the flight, the two aircraft flew to Fordlandia, the old rubber plantation that had once belonged to the Ford Motor Company.

In this painting, the Caravan and the S-38 circle above Fordlandia scouting out the best place to make their water landing upon the Tapajos river.
