This meticulously crafted model is nearly life-sized with textured details. Its engines boast intricate designs, while animatable features include ailerons, flaps, rudder, elevators, propellers, and landing gear. The model comes in various formats, but the base version lacks textures and materials. The Boeing 307 was the first airliner to incorporate cabin pressurization, enabling flights above 10,000 feet. It was also the first four-engine Boeing airliner, derived from the B-17C heavy bomber. The aircraft shared identical wings, tail, stabilizers, engines, and landing gear with its predecessor, while the fuselage featured a low-drag, aerodynamic circular shape for efficient pressurization. With a spacious cabin over 12 feet wide, this luxurious airliner was a technological marvel in 1935. Capable of cruising at 20,000 feet, the airplane experienced fewer weather delays and could fly above adverse conditions. It was also the first airliner to require a flight engineer and accommodated 33 passengers.
