wrote:

(Hagerstown, MD) -- The Hagerstown Aviation Museum in Hagerstown, MD.
is racing against the clock to save the last available Fairchild C-82
"Flying Boxcar." The museum is actively seeking donations to bid on
and purchase the rare Hagerstown-built aircraft to ensure it avoids the
scrap yard. The auction date is August 23, 2006 in Grey Bull, WY.


I thought the C-119 was the "Flying Boxcar"? Both acft are similar
looking...
