This 1943-built, four-engine transport, rolled out of the Douglas factory as a C-54D. It was initially assigned to the USAAF as 42-72525 before transferring to the US Navy. It survived a long and varied career and was one of two flown to this Essex airfield in 2002 to appear in a film entitled Candy Bomber. Ultimately the movie was never made and the aircraft (painted in a US military Air Transport Command livery with its former serial number 56498) has remained at North Weald ever since. The group www.savetheskymaster.org are in the process of restoring it to flying condition. Donations are welcome!
