Cargo Planes
An air plane chiefly designed and used for the carriage of goods, rather than passengers, is known as a cargo airplane. A cargo airplane is easily identifiable, as the role demands a number of special features. Cargo planes in general have a "fat" fuselage, a high wing to allow the cargo area to sit near the ground, and a high mounted tail to allow the cargo to be driven directly on and off the loading truck or crane. A cargo plane also has a large number of wheels to permit it to land in a greater number of locations.
Courier and transportation companies mainly use cargo planes. They help to transfer both light and heavy goods to places that are located far away. These planes are efficient and help to save time, as traveling by plane is the fastest mode of transportation.
At first, cargo planes were only used to deliver airmail to various different places. These were known as the "Early Airmail Craft." There were four different planes made for that purpose. Among the first were the Boeing C-700, Curtis JN4H, De Havilland DH4, and the Douglas M-2. The second generation of cargo aircraft that was manufactured was the "civilian cargo aircraft," which included the Boeing 727, the Boeing 747 freighter, the Boeing 777 freighter, and the Douglas DC-3. The third generation of cargo aircrafts that was built consisted of military cargo aircrafts. These included the Douglas C-54 Skymaster, Lockheed C-69 & C-121 Constellation, and the Boeing C-97 Stratofreighter.
The airplane industry has made the transportation of cargo as well as people a lot more feasible. Cargo planes are widely used today, and they have come a long way since they were first invented before World War II.

Dirigible Cargo Movers
Perhaps you have noticed the Dirigible Cargo Mover artist conceptions in Magazines like Popular Science or Popular Mechanics. They seem to appear about once every year or two years in very nicely done articles and this has been going on now for decades. Interestingly enough the concepts have been getting more and more feasible thanks to lighter materials, better propulsion systems and some crack engineers.
Not only is the military got their eyes on these cargo movers for their logistical needs but some transportation and distribution companies also. Namely FedEx and who can blame them? The concept makes perfect sense and a company like FedEx might be able to move lots of light-weight freight (next day letters) cargo between its distribution hubs in this fashion.
Using a combination of high-output engines, lightweight materials, air-thickening strategies and ground effect the efficiency would certainly be there for such a cargo blimp or large logistic dirigible. It goes without saying that the military could make good use of such a logistics tool.
Will Future Dirigibles revolutionize the transportation industry and become competition for the Trucking Industry? Most likely not anytime soon, but it is something to keep an eye on. You know you have to admit that it makes a lot of sense to float your cargo to its destination and save on fuel. Trucks are subject to traffic and trains take forever to get there.
Using large Dirigible Blimps to move freight sure makes a lot of sense and indeed I am sure we will see many more of these concepts in the future and that is a good thing.

C-119 Flying Boxcar
It was designed to carry cargo, litter patients and mechanized equipment and to drop cargo and troops by parachute. The C-119 had the same major design feature as the C-82-a rear-loading, all-through cargo hold-but featured more- powerful engines and a relocation of the flight deck.
First, the cockpit was moved into the nose of the airplane from its previous location over the cargo compartment. This resulted in much more usable cargo space and larger loads. The C-119 also featured more powerful engines (Pratt & Whitney R-4360s), a widened fuselage and a strengthened structure. The first C-119 prototype (actually called the XC-82B) flew in 1947 and deliveries began in December 1949 as the C-119B.
The C-119B saw extensive action in Korea and Vietnam and many were provided to other nations as part of the Military Assistance Program, including Belgium, Brazil, Ethiopia, India, Italy, Nationalist China and South Vietnam. The type was also used by the Royal Canadian Air Force and by the US Marine Corps under the designations R4Q-1 and R4Q-2. C-119s were also used to ferry supplies to the Arctic for construction of the Distant Early Warning (DEW) line radar sites.
It was in Vietnam that the lowly troop-carrying C-119 took on various tactical, offensive roles which its designers never could have foreseen. In its AC-119G "Shadow" variant, it was fitted with four six-barrel 7.62-mm mini-guns, armor plating, flare-launchers and night-capable infrared equipment. Now a potent weapon, the C-119 was made even more so by the introduction of the AC-119K "Stinger", which featured the addition of two 20-mm cannon, improved avionics and two underwing-mounted J-85-GE-17 turbojet engines, adding nearly 6,000 lbs. of thrust.
Other major variants included the EC-119J, used for satellite tracking; and the YC-119H Skyvan, with larger wings and tail. Another variant still seen today is the "Jet-Pack" version, which incorporates a 3,400-lb thrust Westinghouse J34 turbojet engine in a nacelle above the fuselage. In a reversal of the normal course of events when airplanes are improved and modified, most variants after the C-
