The Fairchild 100 Pilgrim was an American single-engined high-wing monoplane transport, one of a series of single-engine utility transports built by Fairchild Aircraft and an enlarged development of the Fairchild C-8. Virginius Clark designed it, the first aircraft flew on 22 October 1930, and a modified Pilgrim 100-A went into production for American Airways, its first operator, in 1931. Sixteen were built before the restructured American Aircraft and Engine Corporation produced a further ten as the Pilgrim 100-B, four of which the United States Army Air Corps took as the Y1C-24 light transport and later air ambulance. The sturdy series served both as an airliner and as a bush aircraft.
