The Bach Air Yacht was a trimotor airliner produced in the United States in the 1920s. Typical of its day it was a high-wing braced monoplane with fixed tailwheel undercarriage. Unusual for airliners of the late 1920s (due to legislation that forbade carrying passengers in wooden aircraft) the Air Yachts were constructed almost entirely from wood with steel fittings undercarriage and struts.
