But there was a cargo version XC-99.  One was build and used by the USAF for a while.  It was a monster with a double deck interior.  It had two rows of windows along the side and would have carried a bunch of people a long way if sold to the airlines.

It still exists too, it's being totally restored (down in Arizona somewhere I think).  It was used to transport rush items like engines from the States to Hawaii.
I've got a 1/72 conversion of it in my stash, it's made by Gene Hooker in the States

Here is a link to a video of the XC-99 Mensioned by Ed.  Manny
