  • Kent Hagerman, (US Air Force Fairchild C-119, the 'Flying Boxcar')
    By Kent Hagerman
    Located in New York, NY
    While this is probably a military airport, Kent Hagerman still shows it at its futuristic best. Hagerman was an amazing draftsman who managed to get fantastic detail into his work.

The design featured the 'twin boom' clearly showing in this etching. Thanks to this feature it was called the Flying Boxcar. About 1100 were built and used until 1955. It was also used by the Chinese Air...
