This is the Douglas C-124A Globemaster.  It was used during the Korean war and to move troops to Europe during the Berlin Wall Crises.  This was HUGE!!

Enjoy!! Smiley

Holy cow! That's some serious big airplane!  Shocked

You never appreciate their size until you have a point of reference next to them... great to see that little person next to it!
