One of the few postwar production DC-4s (not a C-54) arriving at Oakland on September 18, 1946 for the inaugural landing of ANA in the U.S. Since landing rights had not yet been granted, the plane merely stopped for fuel, and continued on to Vancouver where passengers disembarked. The passengers were later greeted by the press and given a luncheon at Oakland Airport during their layover in commemoration of the flight.

Harold Bamberg, the man behind British Eagle, bought this DC-4 from Air Siam in 1973 with the hope of using it to start a new operation, Eagle Aircraft Services - but it was never to be. Allocated G-BBVN and later LN-NAC (for Norwegian Overseas Airways), the former National, JAL and TAA aircraft is seen on the Southend dump not long before final break-up

The former F-BBDI of Air France became 5R-MAU with Air Madagascar in 11.65 then 5T-RIF with Air Mauritanie in 12.76. Prepared at Southend for a new career with Arax Airlines of Nigreria in 1.79, she is seen here after an emergency crash landing with wheels up after a test flight. Impounded and stored at Lagos, she was later scrapped there

"Luzern" was the first Swiss Air Lines DC-4 to visit Manchester when it replaced the usual DC-3 because of heavy passenger bookings. It stopped overnight on the 1938 apron and is seen wearing the original all-metallic scheme. HB-ILO served SR from 30 April 1947 until it was lost on an overshoot at Schiphol on 14 December 1951.
