The Fairchild C-82 Packet is a twin-engine, twin-boom cargo aircraft that revolutionized air transport in the immediate post-World War II era. Designed for the United States Air Force, the C-82 Packet was operational from the late 1940s through the 1950s, serving as a pivotal asset in the Berlin Airlift and setting the stage for modern air logistics. With its distinctive design, including a clamshell loading door and a high-wing configuration, the C-82 could carry large payloads, including vehicles and artillery, directly to rugged, unprepared airstrips. Its versatility and reliability made it a favorite among pilots and ground crews alike. The Packet's legacy is marked by its significant contribution to military and humanitarian efforts, showcasing the strategic importance of air mobility in the 20th century.
