EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the United States Air Force's Chase YC-122C 49-2879 of the 16th Troop Carrier Squadron, stationed at Stewart Air Force Base in Tennessee during November 1954. The image was taken around 1952, as indicated by the vintage appearance of the aircraft and the uniforms of the personnel. In August 1955, the squadron relocated to Ardmore Air Force Base in Oklahoma, and the YC-122C was subsequently placed into storage. Later, in July 1961, the cargo aircraft was transferred to Surinam and registered as PZ-TAP. However, its history took a tragic turn on January 11, 1967, when it disappeared en route from Fort Lauderdale to Bimini in the Bahamas. The aircraft, carrying a cargo of film equipment, was lost with four people on board, adding to the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle. Debris from the aircraft was later reportedly sighted northwest of Bimini, but the cause of the crash remains unknown. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the history and intrigue surrounding military aviation and the unexplained phenomena of the Bermuda Triangle.
