Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Fairchild XC-120 Packplane was an American experimental transport aircraft first flown in 1950. It was developed from the company''s C-119 Flying Boxcar, and was unique in the unconventional use of removable cargo pods that were attached below the fuselage, instead of possessing an internal cargo compartment. The XC-120 Packplane began as a C-119B fuselage (s/n 8330) which was cut off at a point just below the flight deck. The wings were raised between the engines and the fuselage, raising the fuselage by several feet and giving the plane a gull wing appearance. Smaller wheels were installed forward of each of the main landing gear struts to serve as nose wheels, while the main struts were extended backwards. All four landing gear could be raised and lowered in a scissor like fashion to lower the aircraft and facilitate the removal of a planned variety of wheeled pods which would be attached below the fuselage for the transport of cargo.
