Photo 39 of 46, The 1st Intercontinental Airliner 1/2016

This is a splendid TACA issue of a very special airliner. YS02C, sn 42904 was the first postwar civilian DC-4, delivered new to Western on June 18th 1946. Strangely, Western sold the new DC-4s, (At least two went to TACA) and replaced them with ex military C-54s. TACA operated this beauty for 25 years before retiring it in 1972. For what it's worth, it also appeared in the movie "The Best Years Of Our Lives"
