One of five DC-4's stored by Biegert at Chandler. A very large and unfriendly dog guarded four of these aircraft making photography a very nervous endeavor!

USAAF serial, 42-72247. Serving with Trans Atlantic Airlines as N90443, this DC-4 was impounded at Basel in June 1962, reportedly because of unpaid fees. On 14 June the crew made an illegal departure to Milan. Wearing the fake registration N2894C, the aircraft then flew to Brussels where the pilots ran away. Auctioned in 1967, the plane became a bar near Geraardsbergen (Grammont). In the early 1970s she was moved to the local airfield. Though by then part of the Phoenix gliding club premises, she was in terrible shape when I drove by in 2010.

Looking very nice after being restored at OPF. The aircraft only got as far as Douglas, Georgia on a ferry flight to Alaska in October 2005 when engine problems cut the flight short. Sadly, it was abandoned and the airport sold the aircraft for scrap in June 2017. Seen at Douglas, GA on Jun 18th 2022. Looks to have the 4th engine off and getting repairs

Growing up in Southend when the Carvair was still an everyday sight, it was great to catch up with one of the two survivors, the last of 21 built. I remember seeing her being converted from DC-4 VH-INM in ATEL's hangar in 1968. Resuming service with Ansett-ANA, she later went to Nationwide in NZ and Hawaii Pacific Air before going to S Africa in 1996. Bought by Phoebus in 2002 ('Exclusive' titling was from a cigarette brand) and last flew JNB-QRA 25.6.05. Engines recently refitted and not looking too bad but has remained for sale in increasingly poor condition

The unforgettable sight of a DC-4 taxiing to the soundtrack of a Lancaster! This Argonaut was built in 1947 and served the RCAF till 1966. Here on one of her last ever journeys, with the Air Turks "AT" logo on the fin, she was stored at Sarasota soon after this slide was captured and sadly broken up during 1976

When they stripped all the layers of paint from 'DC for its freight-only career 'au naturel', it was said that they gained about 10% extra payload. Behind is G-AOFW which for a while was a candidate for preservation

Arriving in Bolivia in 1973, this C-54G-5-DO was formerly 45-0551 and although looking rather sad here, was smartly restored as CP-2292 for Air Beni in 1997 and was abandoned at Pucullpa after a drugs flight; now in a very neglected state
