DOUGLAS C-47 / TA-05 "The Montana"
When I got this photography in the late '60s in the I Brigade of Palomar, surely the TA-05 and was intended to National Aviation Museum, after a far-reaching, extensive and brilliant campaign Antarctic from 1964 to the creation of the Marambio Base in 1969 , which included 12 crosses the Drake Passage, two transpolar flights and 200 flight hours Antarctic.
wrote with poetic vein that characterized him, who was his commander and hero of many exploits in the white continent, the Marui Vicecomodoro Luis Olezza :
"An airplane has completed the idea. A metal complex met the spirit of Men minded air route from South of conquest, White Nation, integrated into the everyday, in a desert communicated effectively and pemanentemente to American soil. Plane: The TA-05.
First, it should replace the first attempt, which was a wonderful and tremendous failure that in 1962, when it was called the metal, TA-33.
After: because I had to do what seemed impossible. Thousands of miles across deserts, snow and ice, glaciers and frozen seas, mountain ranges inaccessible and unknown. Because I had to do more, much more than I could.
Because tens of times I was submerged, buried, covered by snow. And there qeu resurrect it. Because tens of times was frozen, stuck, imprisoned in the land of cold and storm. Because reached the Pole, because it saved lives, because they carried mail for virgin paths crossed, because he supported passage of pioneers, because it opened a route ...
TA-05 symbol. Legend rather than history. Myth rather than reality. Because your reputation is more metal skin and meat, for their fur and meat have more presence of mind to matter and metal ... "

LOCKHEED C-130 / TC-63
The Hercules C-130 TC-63, serial No. 4310, model 382c-12D-c130E, can be seen here in this picture, he joined the Air Force Argentina on December 23, 1968. Formed, together with TC-61 (under 40 years active service) and TC-62 (destroyed by a terrorist attack on August 28, 1975 in Tucumán), the batch of three new aircraft purchased from Lockheed, integrating Squadron I Transport in El Palomar.
This goes without saying that the task of Hercules in the FAA is and has ever since been very outstanding and memorable, making countless number of missions, far and wide across the country, neighboring countries and especially in the Antarctic, supplying Argentine bases, not forgetting of course the Falklands War.
Efectivente, the TC-63 was actively involved in the supply of the islands from the same April 2, 1982. When hostilities broke out, the Hercules continued to operate under an environment of extreme danger, making the voyage to the islands at low altitude over the sea strike undetected by enemy radar.
Unfortunately, on 1 June 1982, when the TC-63 on a mission of exploration and recognition on the South Atlantic, was spotted and attacked by two Sea Harrier CAP of 801 Sqn. the RAF, who had no courtesy or compassion, to finish in front of our Hercules, when he was hit by firing a missile prior Sidewinder, which had destroyed the engine no. 2, part of the plane, the flaps and the left wing.

DOUGLAS DC-6A / TC-54
The TC-54 and a reminder of his campaign:

WHEN IN THE "national days" MORON WAS A PARTY
As can be seen at the beginning of this entry in the Aerospace August 1970 and as I said in the Pictorial of the '70s, 9 July at the VII Brigada Aérea Morón concentrated all combat and training aircraft of the Air Force Argentina, for the traditional military parade on July 9. So I took off all Mentor, Morane Saulnier, F-86F Sabre, Douglas A-4B and Gloster Meteor, the last being in 1970 Gloster participation of 14 aircraft took off when in fact only put do 13 aircraft, but that's precisely when you post a separate comment on this venerable aircraft.
Returning to the issue specifically, these photos are what could be done from "the wire" of the Base, with my photographic equipment from then until 1970/71. As I said, since 1972, I got my reflex because my first job as an employee and those Fotso are the public in the other galleries, as obtained in another color and image quality. But anyway, these photos are a lasting memory of an era perhaps unique, unfortunately, NTRA. Air Force beloved Argentina.
