This is a view of a 1940’s DC-4 aircraft.

The aircraft, and many others, can be found at Opalocka Airport in Miami, Florida. This and several of these planes were used recently for disaster relief to Haiti after the earthquake.

To see a close up of one of these engines taken while running, see:

I have images from other aircraft at Opalocka… to access those, see:

I’m a Miami, Florida-based photographer. I and my camera try to get out as often as possible. These images are the result. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

If you like my images enough to buy them, please know that the income goes back into the art. Thanks for visiting!

    This plane may be the greatest plane ever made. Still in service, refurbished, and still air worthy for relief and disaster missions. Sturdy frame and so forth makes this picture honor the engineers who really did a great job. Great pic.

  • Yes, I couldn’t agree more! Thanks for the nice comment!
