Clipper Westward Ho was built as C-54G 45-590 for the USAAF. Converted to civil C54G-DC by Douglas in early 1947 (conversion #73) and leased to Pan Am on 28 February 1947. Returned to the USAF in 1953 as 45-590 and operated until retirement and storage at Davis Monthan AFB. Seen over San Francisco in this Pan Am publicity photo.
