Thank you so much, Ramrod. That's brilliant footage. Brilliant site for the DC-4E overall.
Cheers,
Maarten

Yes nice footage, indeed. Great song in the background too! Something from the 1940-ties, I guess. Any clues of who the band/singer are ? sounds like: "I felt love with a capital U"... or something.  |

Paul, you are correct and the Band is Glenn Miller. Ray Eberle was his male singer and the group singers consisted of Paula Kelly and the Modernaires.

Brilliant we sold it to the Japanese.... The "too complex" argument never sold with me, as by the time of the sale, plans were underway for the more-complex Connie. I think it came down to politics more than anything...
