  • I would love to fly one of those old beasts.

  • The first airplane I jumped out of.

  • The C-119's Taiwan got was not K version. Non of them had the Jet. Later on, they got C-123 which did have the option of jet packs (1 on each wing). By then, my father retired from air force and went over to China Airlines.

    Oh, and I also had ridden in C-47...:)

  • my father flew C-119's out of Washington DC in the early 60's... used to go on them but never got a ride... lol Simon you're lucky.. I hate the jet engine..

  • My father was in Taiwan's airforce. Before 1995 the transport fleet was mostly C-119s. I have flown with my father in those aircrafts many times when I was a child. It's nice to see these are still flying.

  • its so sad how rare they r and onley 1.100 were made last made in 1955 and the last variants being the C-119K with the jets. they just dont make them like they used to

  • is that a jet engine on the roof of the aircarft..was it for heavy cargo loads..thanks

  • What an iconic beast from the past she is. I love these wonderful birds. I was born in 1948 here in the Southern United Kingdom. I can remember the Fairchild C-119's flying at high altitude over my home town of Windsor, Berkshire, UK.

    I first saw your beast pictured in February's issue of Todays Pilot, page 18. Look after Her

    :)
