EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a United States Air Force Fairchild C-82A-15-FA Packet, specifically identified as serial number 44-23004 (msn 10048), during the late 1940s. The aircraft, originally designed for military transport duties, was temporarily modified with snow-ski undercarriage for cold-weather trials, earning the EC-82A designation. The image captures the essence of the 1940s aviation era, with the Fairchild C-82A's distinctive profile and the pristine white snow-ski undercarriage standing out against the backdrop of a winter landscape. The aircraft's powerful engines and wings are clearly visible, highlighting the advanced engineering and technology of the time. After its military service, the Fairchild C-82A was transferred to civilian registry in 1957 under the registration number N75399. Later, it found a new home in Honduras, where it was known as XH-139. However, its aviation journey came to an end in a tragic crash at Trujillo, Honduras. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of the United States Air Force and the evolution of military and civilian aviation. The Fairchild C-82A-15-FA Packet represents a time when innovation, engineering, and determination came together to push the boundaries of what was possible in the skies.
