c-119 Boxcar

[Guest Ronson2k]

Is there anywhere I can find C-119 Boxcar Cockpit drawings and photos. Mostly drawings. I've been thinking of the manual that's available for the C-119 (both on CD and in reprint form). I know it's a fairly large cockpit (nearly C-130 size). I've looked everywhere for info on this bit of antique aircraft (1953). For a plane that has played such a big role in many different duties it's a bit of recluse. In Canada there are at my last look only the nose of one at the Aviation Museum Ottawa. I am concidering a trip there for research but if I can find info else where it would be a great help.Any help would be very appreciated.No doubt about it...Ronson2k
