USAF C-124 S/N 52-1080 at Toncontin, Honduras

Thu Feb 21, 2008 9:14 pm

Hi,
A friend of mine would like to get in touch with the crew of this flight circa May 1964. He would like to hear the stories on the delivery of 2 Sikorsky H-19's for the Honduran AF (FAH), the logistics, landing and possible photos of the unloading operations.
Thanks in advance,
LE

HI,
My best guess is that it is from the 63rd Troop Carrier Wing which was operating out of Hunter AFB at that time. Based on the tail number and the markings, I am certain it was not from the 1607 ATW at Dover or the 1501 ATW at Travis, the two largest C-124C operators during this time period.
Chief
