Douglas C-54M Skymaster.
This next paragraph is from the Museum site:
"Dover's first strategic airlifter is represented by the single remaining C-54M, which was specially modified during the Berlin Airlift for hauling coal. The Skymaster's restoration was also quite extensive, and took several years. The inside shows examples of its World War II cargo and passenger configurations—and if parts become available will display how medical litters were carried in its Korean War role as a Medivac aircraft. During the restoration process, we were fortunate to find a photograph of this aircraft showing its military serial #44-9030 and the markings it carried in the Pacific Theater in World War II. They were still in place during her service in the Berlin Airlift and we have restored the aircraft in these markings. "
Enjoy!!

Now that's what I call an airliner. Wonderful.
Shame about the missing rudder.

I would have loved to fly around the country in one of these!!
The rudder is being repaired and should be back on the next time I go down.
