EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a Curtiss C-46E-CS Commando plane, a versatile military transport aircraft produced by the Curtiss-Wright Corporation during World War II. The Commando, also known as the "C-46," was a twin-engine, single-aisle transport aircraft that could carry troops, cargo, or medical supplies. Its distinctive design features a high-wing configuration, a large cargo door, and twin tailfins. The C-46E-CS variant, specifically, was an improved version of the original C-46 Commando. It boasted more powerful engines, which increased its payload capacity and maximum speed. This particular aircraft is seen here with the distinctive CS markings, indicating that it was operated by the United States Army Air Forces' Air Transport Command. The C-46 played a crucial role in the war effort, transporting troops and supplies to various theaters of operation, including Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Pacific. Its ability to operate from unimproved runways and short strips made it an invaluable asset in the rugged terrain of war zones. This photograph captures the Commando in flight, with its wings casting long shadows on the ground below. The engine exhausts trail plumes of smoke, adding to the sense of motion and power. The image offers a glimpse into the history of military aviation and the vital role that transport aircraft played in the outcome of World War II.
