In his distinctive white overalls, a TWA groundcrew member marshals a Douglas DST (note the upper cabin windows) into position, probably just before the entry of America into the Second World War. The airline introduced the DST and its 21-seat non-sleeper variant, the DC-3, into service in the summer of 1937.

The DC-3-362 Lombard was travelling in, c/n 3295, was built as NC1951 but the registration was cancelled on February 7, 1941, the machine becoming NC1946/ “387” in TWA service.

The Lombard party was flying aboard a DC-3 arranged in TWA’s Sky Club configuration, which did not have the Sky Sleeper DST’s overnight berths, but instead offered plenty of room and comfortable seating.
