A very fine looking natural metal DC-4/C-54 on the apron at Archerfield airport, Brisbane circa 1995.
During my first trip to DC I refused to just bask in the beauty of it. I instead bathed in the loss and sorrow ALONG with the beauty. It is important to never forget the full spectrum of our past.
Various shots from my recent DC trip.

The DC-5 was the only Douglas Commercial to be designed and built in the El Segundo plant. This plant had originally been the home of the Northrop Aircraft Corporation which John Northrop had set up with the help of Donald Douglas in 1932.
Design of the DC-5 was carried out by a team led by Leo Devlin, and supervised by Ed Heinemann.
he El Segundo team decided on a twin-engined high wing configuration and a fully retractable undercarriage. The aircraft was designed to meet a perceived need for a short-haul feeder liner to complement the DC-3 being used on longer routes with heavier traffic. It was to carry a crew of three and sixteen passengers, with the potential to carry twenty-two passengers in high density format.
The DC-5’s success was short-lived due to the out break of World War II. Penn Central and SCADTA had cancelled their orders, and Douglas had decided to concentrate the El Segundo plant’s efforts on military programmes, notably the A-20 ‘Havoc’ bomber.
Therefore only five commercial and seven military versions of the DC-5 were built.
Of these five commercial aircraft, the first (and prototype) was bought by William T Boeing as an ‘executive’ plane. NX21701, c/n 411 made her maiden flight on 20 February 1939.
The other four were delivered to KLM, Royal Dutch Airlines, with two being delivered to KLM’s West Indies Division in Curacao, as the Netherlands were invaded by the Germans on May 10th, 1940. These were registered PJ-AIW Wakago and PJ-AIZ Zonvogel. After a year these two were transferred to KNILM as PK-ADD and PK-ADC, following PK-ADA and PK-ADB which went directly to the Dutch East Indies.
The first KLM DC-5 was registered PH-AXB "Boschduif", but was redirected to the Dutch East Indies as The Netherlands was occupied by Germany. It was leased by KNILM and entered service in September 1940: reregistered PK-ADB (c/n 428). Her days ended after a failed overshoot at Parafield in South Australia end 1942.
