The Fairchild Model 24 was designed in the 1930s as a four-seat, single-engine monoplane light transport aircraft. The Model 24 was based on previous models from Fairchild and was civilian and military used. Several versions existed with different engines. Over 2,000 were manufactured. The United States Army Air Corps designated it as UC-61 / VC-61 and used it for light utility transport tasks.
