Emirau Island airport was built as two adjoining airstrips - Northern Cape for bombers, which is the one in the photo, and Inshore for fighters. The two were connected by a taxiway. The airfields now are considered to be one airport and in use. Satellite photos show Northern Cape's runway is less neglected than Inshore. Photo from: RNZAF/Air Force Museum of New Zealand

Fairchild borrowed a truck from the Statton furniture company to show the potential of the C-82. It was underpowered, however, and it took time to rework the design as the C-119 Flying Boxcar.

The aircraft emergency landed here 20 Nov 1945 piloted by Robert L Fox. It was recovered later and repaired and became NC342 with the Civil Aviation Authority. But apparently the crew had left the aircraft and disappeared as there is a Missing Air Crew Report for this accident.
