Another picture of the first DC-2, this time in Kansas City with the Intercity Viaduct in the background. TWA abandoned its slogan 'The Lindbergh Line' in late 1938, and replaced it with 'The Transcontinental Line' titles. The two red tail stripes were introduced earlier.

The first DC-2, registered in 1934. Foster Lane established the Port Columbus Flying School in 1935 and based himself in the TWA hangar. The front of the hangar originally carried the logo of TWA predecessor TAT, which was restored circa 2016, but what does it say here? NC13711 sold to Royal Air Force in 1941 as DG477 but by then it wore TWA scheme with two red tail stripes. Photo from: SFO Museum

VH-USY served with Australian National Airways from 1936 to 1947. Sold for scrap in 1948, it was converted into a caravan. The front was hitched onto the bed of a truck, the rear supported on four tyres (two doubles) under the name Laze-away Land Cruiser. It is being preserved as an aviation relic and at the time of the photo was squeezed into a suburban front yard.

Why the interest in the DC-3 is not explained but Boulder City was the last stop before Burbank (Hollywood) for TWA's transcontinental flights from New York. It would have been popular service for Hollywood's stars. NC13718 was bought by the British Purchasing Commission during World War II and used by the RAF as DG471. Crashed in October 1941.

Corporate aircraft delivered to tycoon Captain George Whittall in 1936. He owned a vast estate at Lake Tahoe called Thunderbird Lodge. NC16048's registration was cancelled in 1939 as sold in China (CNAC) when the registered owner was Nevada Exploration. The link to Whittall is not known. There is an alternative story for this aircraft and that is it was delivered in 1937 to Pan American which sold it to CNAC. This photo clearly supports the Whittall version.

Built in July 1934 as part of an order for launch customer TWA, it was soon disposed of as the DC-3 became available to them and was purchased by Braniff. Photo taken at what is probably the site of the current Oklahoma City airport. It then passed to the US War Department as 42-61096 but was deregistered on 4 May 1943. It was operated by Aerovias Brazil until a landing accident at Lagoa Santa on 5 February 1947 damaged the aircraft beyond repair. (Unknown Photographer)

USAAC aircraft from new. Arrived in Australia in April 1942. Mainly operated between Brisbane and Papua New Guinea. Handed over to the airline ANA to operate while retaining the Directorate of Air Transport Allied Air Forces radio callsign VHCCF. Force landed March 9, 1944 near Molesworth, Victoria by which time the camouflage had been removed. ANA bought the wreck and VH-ARA was allocated postwar. However it was not rebuilt and used for spares instead. Photo from: State Library of South Australia

Carl Gustaf von Rosen, who worked as a KLM DC-2 pilot - see photo 509828 - bought this DC-2, PH-AKH, to help the Finns against the Soviet invaders. He flew it from Sweden to Tampere on 14 January 1940. Bomb racks were fitted and machine guns installed in the nose and in an open dorsal position, as seen here. The aircraft flew one bombing mission on 1 March 1940. Later it served as Marshal Mannerheim's personal transport. In March 1942 it was camouflaged and given a new serial, DO-1. It was retired in 1957 and is now beautifully preserved in the Tuulonen shopping mall. Photo from: Finnish Air Force
