Originally serviced by Eastern and United pre-WWII in 1939, the DC-4 faced challenges with maintenance and efficiency. However, its production was diverted to military use during WWII, resulting in 1100 C-54s and R5Ds being produced. Post-war, 79 DC-4s were manufactured for airlines while many C-54s and R5Ds returned to civilian service. These aircraft accommodated 40-80 passengers, cruised at 227 mph, had a range of 4250 miles, and a service ceiling of 22300 feet. DC-4s remained in service as of 2014.
