Just a note about the USAF C-54, in the world of civilian aviation, this was the DC-10 4, the FIRST civilian airplane known as a long-range 4 engine passenger aircraft capable of transcontinental range.

... this was the DC-10 4, ...

Oops and thanks for the correction! The DC-10 was that tri-engined jet airliner and probably unable to land at the Berlin airports of that era. I must have been writing in my sleep for this goof.
