Built as a C-119F-FA by Fairchild at Hagerstown, MD in 1953 and converted to C-119J in 1957 with beaver-type rear cargo doors, this Flying Boxcar initially had a regular transport role, but in 1958/59 was modified for the mid-air retrieval of space capsules re-entering the atmosphere from orbit. In August 1960, it caught the Discoverer XIV satellite using recovery gear lowered from the open rear door and snagging the satellite's parachute, a winch then reeling in the satellite's film capsule. In 1963 it was flown to Wright Field to await display facilities; my 1973 photo here

The logos on nose and tail and the strange "H0180-H" marks on the wing underside all date back to early 2004, when this C-119 starred in the movie "Flight of the Phoenix". It was operated by Hawkins and Powers at the time, and an airstrip to facilitate the filming was constructed at Rössing Mountain, near Swakopmund in Namibia. Hans Lauridsen acquired the aircraft two years later. After storage at Greybull (WY), Glendale (AZ) and Wickenburg (AZ), this Boxcar arrived at Buckeye on 25 June 2009. It hasn't flown since.
