Huff-Daland Duster, 1925. Creator: Huff-Daland
Steel tube fuselage with wood wings, all fabric covered, biplane. The Huff-Daland Duster was designed in 1925 for a new method of controlling agricultural insect pests, aerial crop dusting. The Huff-Daland Manufacturing Company modified its sturdy Petrel military biplane with a large hopper for chemicals and spraying equipment and established the nations first aerial dusting business, Huff-Daland Duster Company of Macon, Georgia and later, Monroe, Louisiana. C.E. Woolman took over the company in 1928 and renamed it Delta Air Service (forerunner of Delta Air Lines) to reflect the addition of mail and passenger service in Travel Airs. The remains of two of the original 18 Dusters stayed in storage until 1967 when Delta Air Lines selected one of them for restoration. Its registration number is unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Huff-Daland Duster, a revolutionary aircraft designed in 1925 for aerial crop dusting. Created by the innovative minds at Huff-Daland Manufacturing Company, this biplane featured a steel tube fuselage with wooden wings, all covered in fabric. The company modified their sturdy Petrel military biplane by adding a large hopper for chemicals and spraying equipment, establishing the nation's first aerial dusting business known as Huff-Daland Duster Company. In 1928, C. E. Woolman took over the company and renamed it Delta Air Service (later becoming Delta Air Lines), expanding its services to include mail and passenger transportation using Travel Airs. Although little is known about its registration number, one of the original 18 Dusters was carefully preserved until 1967 when Delta Air Lines selected it for restoration. This remarkable artifact represents an important milestone in American aviation history. Its significance lies not only in its role as an agricultural insect pest control method but also as a testament to technological advancements during the early 20th century. As we gaze upon this beautifully captured image, we are transported back to a time when aviation was still in its infancy and pioneers like Huff-Daland pushed boundaries to revolutionize air transport. Displayed within the National Air and Space Museum collection of the Smithsonian Institution, this photograph serves as both an educational tool and a reminder of our country's rich heritage in aerospace technology. It stands as a symbol of innovation that paved the way for future developments in aviation while honoring those who contributed to shaping America's air transport industry.
