History in Transit

The twin tail sections from a disassembled C-119B “Flying Boxcar” are positioned for loading onto A C-5 Galaxy from Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, on the flightline of Edwards Air Force Base, California, Dec. 19. The C-5 was loaded with the majority of the disassembled aircraft for transportation to the Air Mobility Command Museum at Dover AFB. This airplane, tail number 48-0352, was one of several that played a direct role in the Battle of Chosin Reservoir in the Korean War in 1950. It will eventually be restored to its Korean War era configuration and displayed at the AMC Museum.

NASA Lunar Landing Research Vehicle

A NASA Lunar Landing Research Vehicle like this one will also be transferred to the Air Force Flight Test Museum in the near future. The LLRVs were created by a predecessor of NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center here at Edwards to study and analyze piloting techniques needed to fly and land the tiny Apollo Lunar Module in the moon's airless environment. Armstrong was known as NASA's Flight Research Center from 1959 to 1976. Success of the LLRVs led to the building of three Lunar Landing Training Vehicles used by Apollo astronauts at the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston, predecessor of NASA's Johnson Space Center.
