Hi everyone I am new to this but an old hand. Anyone know what the two tails are that look like DC4s with a plain number on? Colin Prentice.

The aircraft are N-44914 with “56498” on the tail and is painted in Air Transport Command colours. The other is N-31356 with “44-42914” on the tail and is overall aluminimum with a read chevron.

From a previous thread as posted by Galdri in 2002 when the aircraft arrived

These aircraft were moved slightly earlier this year – their new location makes the tails more visible from the M11.

Pair of C-54’s which were over here for filming something or other, of which I’m sure someone else can fill the details.

Been there several years:
