Douglas DC-7 model airplane

Based largely on the DC-6B, the development of the DC-7 was prompted by American Airlines, which was seeking an aircraft superior in performance to the Lockheed Super Constellation being used by TWA. Though good, the DC-7 didn't have quite the desired range, so the DC-7B was offered with increased fuel capacity, theoretically allowing Pan American to launch non-stop service on the London-New York route on June 13, 1955. But with a full load and normal headwinds, DC-7Bs which were used to operate the east-to-west service frequently had to divert for a refueling stop, which was clearly unsatisfactory and potentially dangerous. The result was the DC-7C, with the alphanumeric suffix of this version becoming corrupted appropriately to Seven Seas, for this aircraft was able to take the oceans in its stride without any problems. A total of 105 DC-7s, 112 DC-7Bs, and 120 DC-7Cs were built. The DC-7C had a maximum speed of 406 mph at 21,700 feet, normal cruising speed of 355 mph, service ceiling of 21,700 feet and range with maximum payload of 4,605 miles.

All airplane models are Hand Carved, Hand Painted Mahogany and come fully assembled with removable desk stand.
