EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Martin B-26C-T XB-LOX, a historic military aircraft with an intriguing past. Originally built as a Martin B-26C-20-MO Marauder for the United States Army Air Force (USAAF) under the serial number 41-35071, this aircraft underwent numerous transformations throughout its career. In the late 1940s, it was modified to an AT-23B and later redesignated TB-26C. After leaving the US military, it was sold to United Air Lines in September 1946 and registered as N5546N. In 1948, it was acquired by Allied Aircraft Company and entered the 1949 Bendix Air Race, but unfortunately failed to finish on time. The aircraft's next significant chapter began in 1959 when it was sold to PEMEX, the Mexican state-owned petroleum company, and registered in Mexico as XB-LOX. It remained in Mexico for six years before returning to the United States in 1965. In 1967, the Confederate Air Force (CAF) at Harlingen, Texas, purchased the aircraft and restored it to flying status, registering it once again as N5546N and nicknaming it "Carolyn." Tragically, on September 28, 1995, during a flight, "Carolyn" crashed, resulting in the fatalities of all five crewmembers. This photograph, taken circa 1962, captures the B-26C-T XB-LOX in its PEMEX livery, a poignant reminder of its rich and complex history.
