OUR PLANE'S STORY

N3742E, a Piper PA-36 Pawnee Brave 300, was one of 938 PA-36s built between 1973-1981. The Pawnee Brave is primarily used for crop dusting and aerial application work, specifically designed to meet the demands of agricultural operations, offering excellent maneuverability, durability, and efficiency, as well as excellent visibility, crucial for accurate application of agricultural products. In June 1986, N3742E was damaged beyond repair while releasing an agricultural chemical load in Moore, Idaho.

PlaneTags are Handmade Aviation Tags

• Authentic - made from actual retired aircraft fuselage, not merely stamped metal. 
• Unique -  each PlaneTag bears the color, thickness, and wear and tear from the portion of the fuselage from which it was cut and it is therefore rare to create two identical PlaneTags. 
• Collectible - each one is numbered in a limited edition and comes attached to a display card. 
  
• Versatile - comes with a durable metal ring, strong enough to attach to luggage or keys or display.

- Please Note: Due to limited quantities, combination colors you may receive will vary.

*Important Notice – Please Read Carefully

PlaneTags are made from actual retired aircraft fuselage, not merely stamped metal. Because PlaneTags are made from real fuselage, each PlaneTag bears the color, thickness, and wear and tear from the portion of the fuselage from which it was cut and it is therefore rare to create two identical PlaneTags. These variations and imperfections are not product flaws. They are part of the beauty of PlaneTags. As a result, you will not have an option to select the color of your PlaneTag. The images on this website are provided for reference only and should not be used as the sole basis for choosing a particular PlaneTag.
