EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sleek lines and graceful curves of a Martin 4-0-4 aircraft, specifically N474A (msn 14165), as it soars through the sky during the 1950s or 1960s. The Martin 4-0-4 was a twin-engine, propeller-driven airliner produced by the Glenn L. Martin Company, which first entered service with Eastern Airlines in May 1952. In this image, we see the aircraft in the livery of Mohawk Airlines, which operated the Martin 4-0-4 between December 1962 and September 1965. The bold red and white stripes, along with the distinctive Mohawk feather logo, make for a striking visual contrast against the blue sky. The Martin 4-0-4 was known for its advanced design and capabilities, including a cruising speed of over 300 mph and a range of over 1,500 miles. It was a popular choice among airlines for its efficiency and reliability, and was used for both short-haul and regional routes. After its tenure with Mohawk Airlines, N474A went on to fly with Colony Airlines until the late 1970s. This photograph serves as a nostalgic reminder of the golden age of aviation and the iconic role that the Martin 4-0-4 played in shaping the skies of the past.
