Yakataga, FAA C-123 Aircraft, 1957

Yakataga FSS (CYT), Alaska 1957
The well known FAA owned C-123 cargo plane parked on the ramp at Yakataga. At the time of this photo the aircraft was brand new and yet to be painted with FAA colors.  This aircraft served FAA bush facilities throughout Alaska for many years, delivering food and household goods to hundreds of FAA employees. The FSS building can be seen to the far right off the nose of the aircraft.
