"Fifi Kate" was built in the Douglas Long Beach plant and delivered on the 14th of June, 1943, and flew for the USAF during World War II. Over the years, she has flown for numerous cargo airlines in the US, Europe, Alaska, and Canada. She has also appeared in many movies, including "Band of Brothers". On this beautiful Memorial Day, Fifi Kate sits on the ramp at SNA, her new home, only a few miles away from her first home, Long Beach Airport.

I made a special journey down from Manchester to North Weald (about 180 miles), to see two DC4s/C54s which had just made the transatlantic crossing-see photo elsewhere in database by me-and was rewarded by not just seeing them, but also this Dak, "Fifi Kate," and amazingly good light for late November in the UK
