Summary[edit]
DescriptionUnited Airlines DC-8 Jet Mainliner - N8066U - Flickr - skinnylawyer (1).jpg |
United Airlines entered the jet age with the Douglas DC-8 in 1959. Although Delta Air Lines is the official launch customer of the aircraft, United did put a DC-8 into revenue service on the same day Delta did. United would also launch the Boeing 727 and the McDonnell-Douglas DC-10 similarly - 727 simultaneously with Eastern, DC-10 with American. This is the -52 variant. The -50 series was the most advanced of the original-length DC-8s, and made the backbone of United transcontinental services in the 1960s. This aircraft has been part of the California ScienCenter collection since its retirement. Initially in the 1970s Saul Bass-designed "Rainbow" livery and parked on the ground, it was later painted back to the original 1960s "Jet Mainliner" livery and mounted on a custom stand. United continued to operate the later variants of the DC-8, the stretched Super Sixty series, into the early 1990s. One of my first air travel experiences was a United Super Sixty in 1991. Tail details. N8066U, Douglas DC-8-52 |
