Fairchild C-119G Flying Boxcar Flag – 36″ × 60″
Celebrate the rugged spirit of American airlift history with our C-119G Flying Boxcar Flag, exclusively offered by Custom Flag Nation and Hangar 2A Merch, a proud 100% veteran-owned and operated business. Designed with striking full-color detail, this flag pays tribute to the legendary aircraft that served as the backbone of tactical air transport during the Cold War and beyond.
The C-119 Flying Boxcar earned its nickname from its distinctive twin-boom design and cavernous cargo bay, which could carry troops, equipment, and even small vehicles. Introduced in 1947, the aircraft saw extensive service with the U.S. Air Force, Marine Corps, and international partners. The C-119G variant, featuring more powerful engines and increased payload capacity, played a critical role in operations ranging from the Korean War to humanitarian airlifts. Whether dropping paratroopers, transporting supplies, or conducting daring resupply missions, the Boxcar embodied the reliability and versatility of mid-20th-century American airpower.
This 36″ × 60″ polyester knit flag captures the legacy of the Flying Boxcar with vivid, durable print technology that ensures sharp lines and vibrant color saturation. It is best suited for indoor display to ensure longevity of the vibrant colors, making it a perfect centerpiece for offices, veteran spaces, hangars, or home collections.
Looking for something unique and meaningful to send to your deployed military member? These make great deployment gifts to receive downrange in their care packages from home. This flag also makes a thoughtful gift for retirements, squadron reunions, airshow enthusiasts, and aviation historians who appreciate the heritage of the C-119.
