  1. I believe that is the most beautiful multi prop engine aircraft ever built. I just saw that John Travolta has bought one and they will do a full restoration including the engines. It will not be a hanger queen as he plans to fly it. https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article300514779.html

  2. Loved this! In 1948, my paternal grandfather and my aunt flew from La Guardia Airport (NYC) to Los Angeles in one of these, which edition I cannot tell you. It made two stops enroute.
