The correct answer is the Curtiss-Wright C-46 Commando, also known to the men who flew them as “The Whale”. The C-46 served a similar role as its brother the Douglas C-47 Skytrain, but was not quite as famous or as heavily produced. The Navy/Marine Corps version was known as the R5C.
The correct answer was submitted by skybolt2003, jeaton, wayne baker, subfixer and telesono. All bur wayne baker are tied with 2 out of 2 correct answers. My apologies to subfixer for inadvertently not crediting him with a correct answer on this question!
Question #3 will post shortly, hopefully, more players will submit answers. Thank you all for playing, I hope you all are finding the quizzes enjoyable!
