First introduced by Eastern and United in 1939, the DC-4 initially faced challenges due to its complexity and efficiency. However, during WWII, its production was diverted for military use, resulting in 1100 C-54s and R5Ds being produced. Post-war, 79 more DC-4s were created for airlines while many C-54s and R5Ds returned to civilian commercial services. These planes carried between 40-80 passengers at a cruising speed of 227 mph, with a range of 4250 miles and service ceiling of 22,300 feet. As of 2014, some DC-4s are still operational.
