One very good looking DC-4/C-54. Abandoned at San Juan International Airport after a nose wheel collapse while taxiing in March 2012. Was already slated for scrapping due to wing corrosion when blown into drainage ditch during Hurricane Maria in September 2017.

Probably the last "Super DC-4" still flying. The R-2000 engines on this aircraft were replaced with R-2600 engines, which resulted in a significant increase in performance.
