Product description
High-quality metal-plastic model of the civil aircraft Air France Douglas DC-4, The model is precisely processed according to the real aircraft model. The package includes a base.
After verification flights of the DC-4E aircraft of United Airlines, it turned out that the 52-seat airliner was too inefficient and unreliable for economic operation, and partner airlines American Airlines, Eastern, Pan American, Trans World and United recommended a long list of changes in the design. Douglas accepted the new requirements and produced a completely new, smaller design of the DC-4A with a simpler, still non-pressurized fuselage, Pratt & Whitney R-2000 Twin Wasp engines and a single fin and rudder. The tricycle landing gear was retained.
