  • Two Santa Fe Skyway aircraft.

    back in the late '40s, early '50s, the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railroad (we will refer to them as the ATSF) started a freight airline called Santa Fe Skyway flying war surplus (World War II) aircraft. Most likely, the Civil Aeronautics Authority (CAA) was the reason that the Santa Fe Skyway / ATSF Skyway collapse.

  • This set will be the start of my "retirement" program for the 3/4G aircraft and instead do 8 and 9G aircraft. In this set, I put in three college sports team liveries and the Horizon Air Retro livery. The liveries are:

    • Alaska State Nanooks
    • Oregon State Beavers
    • Boise State Broncos
    • and finally, the Horizon Air Retro livery

Boeing 737-300

  • The Lockheed Martin CATBird (<strong>C</strong>ooperative <strong>A</strong>vionics <strong>T</strong>est <strong>B</strong>ed) was a Lufthansa 737-300 for 15 years, and then they retired it to be replaced by a newer aircraft, and then Lockheed Martin bought it and extremely modified it to serve as a testbed for the F-35 avionics (An earlier aircraft with a very similar mission, Boeing 757 CATFISH used to test the F-22 avionics has existed). The CATBird has an F-35 nose (that is why the aircraft has that weird nose), a canard just aft of the front doors, and another canard-type wing between the wing and tail. Onboard, there is most of the avionics that the F-35 has.

Boeing 777-200

  • As a some of you may know, the original Eastern Airlines started by Eddie Rickenbacker (America's Ace of Aces during World War I) started the company in 1926 and then went out of business in 1991, but since then, there has been numerous companies with the same name and the current one has been the most successful (this one) and has been around since 2010. The company has only one route: Santo Domingo to Miami and back, although the company does do charters, but primarily for the US military.

International Committee of the Red Cross

Douglas DC-4

  • This aircraft is the Aviation Traders ATL-98 Carvair based off of the Douglas DC-4. This type aircraft was used by cargo companies and they used it to ship rich british families vehicles across the atlantic so that they could drive their own car in the U.S. The catch is that it could only hold three cars, so if only one car didn't make it onboard, then that flight lost 1/3 of the pay. The International Red Cross also used this aircraft to haul supplies after natural or un-natural disasters throughout the world.

U.S. Air Force

Douglas DC-4
Douglas DC-6

  • These two aircraft were the first dedicated presidential aircraft to serve with the US Air Force. These aircraft are called VC-54/DC-4 (Sacred Cow) and the VC-118/DC-6 (The Independence). The Sacred Cow was specially built for President F.D. Roosevelt and was designed with an elevator on the bottom so that FDR could be lifted into the fuselage (see black rectangle on rear fuselage) he could go anywhere onboard the aircraft. Sadly, FDR only used the aircraft on one trip, when he went to the Cairo Conference (attending were Chiang Kai-shek (Nationalist China), Winston Churchill (UK), and FDR (US), the Tehran Conference (attending were Joseph Stalin (USSR), Winston Churchill (UK), and FDR (US), and the Yalta Conference (attending were Joseph Stalin (USSR), Winston Churchill (UK). All of these conferences the FDR attended with the Sacred Cow was just events along the important conference at Yalta.

    After FDR's death, Truman used the Sacred Cow for a short while and onboard this aircraft between Washington, D.C. and Independence, MO where he was scheduled to pick up the VC-118 he signed the The National Security Act of 1947 which founded the U.S. Air Force. Truman used the VC-118 for most of his time in office (operated between 1947-1953) but after President Eisenhower came to office bringing the VC-121 (Columbine II) it was still kept as a backup aircraft until the JFK administration (with major modifications to both the livery and the interior).

    Today, both aircraft reside at the National Museum of the United States Air Force in Dayton, OH.

  • Janet Airlines is one of only two US government owned airlines. Janet operates flights from Las Vegas to locations throughout the Area 51 complex as well as quite a few other locations, some know, some unknown. The airline's motto is "We can tell you where we fly, but then we will have to kill you". Janet aircraft are easily identified by the entirely white fuselage with a singular red line on both sides.
