EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Douglas C-47 N718A, affectionately known as "AO Tern," as it taxis along the tarmac at Beirut International Airport on June 10, 1955. The Douglas C-47 Skytrain, a military and civilian transport aircraft, was a key component of the post-World War II aviation landscape, and its enduring design continues to captivate aviation enthusiasts to this day. N718A, operated by the Air Transport Services, was a versatile aircraft that saw service in various roles, including military transport, cargo transport, and even as aerial water bomber during forest fires. In this image, the C-47 is seen in its commercial transport configuration, with the distinctive "Tern" logo emblazoned on its fuselage. The photograph captures the essence of aviation history, with the aircraft's powerful engines idling in the background, and the crew members in their smart uniforms, ready for the next leg of their journey. The image also provides a glimpse into the past, with the simple, functional design of the airport and the lack of modern amenities that we have come to expect in today's air travel experience. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Douglas C-47, which continues to be a favorite among aviation enthusiasts and collectors. It also serves as a reminder of the golden age of aviation, when flying was a thrilling and exciting experience, and the world seemed a little smaller with every new destination reached by air.
