Tribune caption, Apr. 18, 1951- "General Douglas MacArthur's personal plane, the Constellation 'Bataan,' gleams under the glare of searchlights as it taxis in front of the waiting crowd at San Francisco Airport. The plane landed at 8:29 p.m., half an hour late because of headwinds encountered near the coast." Handwritten under the caption, "The Bataan pulls into parking area at S.F. airport." Photo shows the plane with "United States Air Force" painted on the side. Standing around the plane are Military Police. A few newspaper cameramen are milling around amoung the M.P.'s.
