Nationwide Airlines of Detroit was formed in 1947, operating aircraft in conjunction with Nationwide Air Transport Service. The former merged with Lake Central Airlines in 1950, and the latter was taken over by Resort Airlines in 1951. This picture is a detail of a photo which also shows C-47A NC54337. That aircraft crashed 11 Nov 1949, which helps to date this photo a bit more precisely. NC57131 seen here is ex 42-100577, a D-Day veteran. Photo from: Wayne State University
