One of then only two flyable Carvairs in the world is seen here in a glorious take-off, a very rare and wonderful sight (and sound)! This beautiful oldie had already seen a lot of the world: it flew as LN-IAE, JA6012, HL4003, VH-INK, N54598, ZK-NWA, N5459X and C-GAAH, before ending up with Brooks Fuel in late 2002. Roger Brooks did a great restoration job on it, but then unfortunately crashed it near McGrath, AK on 30 May 2007.

In 2011 this C-54 was restored in its WWII Pacific Theater markings, which it still carried during Berlin Airlift service, by then the one of 38 'M' models converted for coal hauling. From 1973 was used for sky marshall training but joined the AMC Museum in 1989
