Yankee Doodle was purchased to make intercontinental flights with the well-known pilot Art Goebel. He is showing here long-wave radio equipment. Eventually the flights by Art Goebel in Yankee Doodle were never made!
This book is highly recommended for more info on the Lockheed early transport planes:
Richard Sanders Allen,
Revolution in the sky - The Lockheeds of aviation golden age
Orion Books/New York (1988)
ISBN 0-517-56678-8
Book is out of print but it must be readily available on the 2nd-hand book market.

The second image is also a Convair 240--notice the two-wheeled nose landing gear, the DC-4 has a single wheel.

Great photos, both of you!!!

Hahaha- this is very popular last time, to take image of the same place as it was photographed long time ago ;)

C-141 of 1965 image is replaced by C-17 in 2009 and of course image of 2009 shows most updated version.
Apparently that Hawkeye has an extremely long service life!
