VINTAGE POST WORLD WAR II CARGO PLANE FAIRCHILD AIRCRAFT'S C-119 FLYING BOXCAR FAIRCHILD AIRCRAFT'S C-119 FLYING BOXCAR FROM "MPC" AKA MULTIPLE PRODUCTS CO AKA MULTIPLE PLASTICS CO. AKA MULTIPLE TOYMAKERS CO. Multiple Products Corporation (commonly known as "MPC") was also called Multiple Toymakers. The company produced a large variety of toys (mostly made of plastic) over their years in business, including: playsets and figures (many fondly remember their figures that were nick-named "ring-hands", as they had small holes in their hands for which to hold accessories like guns, tools, etc.), dollhouse material, character toys, toy guns, vehicles, games, and more. MPC AIRPLANES CHECKLISTAS OF 1999PRICES HAVE DOUBLED+FREE COPYWITH PURCHASE This auction is for one of MPC's miniature plastic airplanes from the 1960's... The Fairchild C-119 Flying Boxcar (Navy and Marine Corps designation R4Q) was an American military transport aircraft developed from the World War II-era Fairchild C-82 Packet, designed to carry cargo, personnel, litter patients, and mechanized equipment, and to drop cargo and troops by parachute. The first C-119 made its initial flight in November 1947, and by the time production ceased in 1955, more than 1,100 C-119s had been built. Its cargo-hauling ability and unusual appearance earned it the nickname "Flying Boxcar". Role: Military transport aircraft Manufacturer: Fairchild Aircraft First flight: November 1947 Introduced: December 1949 Retired: 1995 Taiwanese Air Force Primary users: United States Air ForceUnited States Army United States Navy United States Marine Corps Produced: 1949–1955 Number built: 1,183 Developed from: Fairchild C-82 Packet Variants: Fairchild XC-120 Packplane Fairchild AC-119 YO-200/210 These dinosaurs were flying over Ft. Benning, Ga. when I was going through Airborne School back in 1964. Thankfully, we did our jumps in C-130's. The AC-119G "Shadow" variant was fitted with four six-barrel 7.62 mm miniguns, armor plating, flare launchers, and night-capable infrared equipment. Like the AC-130 it would be a potent weapon. The AC-119 was made more deadly by the introduction of the AC-119K "Stinger" version, which featured the addition of two 20 mm cannon, improved avionics, and two underwing-mounted General Electric J85-GE-17 turbojet engines, adding nearly 6,000 lbf (27 kN) of thrust.
