The Stout Bushmaster 2000 was a small commuter airliner built in the United States in an attempt to revive the Ford Trimotor design. Work began in 1953 by testing a vintage Trimotor and in 1954 Bill Stout purchased the design rights to the original Trimotor. Due to Ford Tri-Motor licensing problems the Ford 15-AT-D was given the Bushmaster 2000 name.
Made by Bushmaster Aircraft.
It is the successor of the Ford Trimotor .
