Museum Visitors Pose Beneath the Nose of a Twin-Boom Radial-Engine Warbird

Visitors pose beneath the imposing nose of a twin-boom, radial-engine warbird on static display at the museum. Aircraft of this configuration, exemplified by types such as the Fairchild C-119 Flying Boxcar, served in cargo, transport, and specialized combat roles for the U.S. military during the mid-20th century.
