This model accurately represents the Convair CV-580's actual dimensions, featuring fully textured design. It boasts animateable features such as propellers, ailerons, flaps, elevators, landing gear, and landing gear doors. Available in multiple formats, this aircraft was a popular choice for medium haul, medium load commercial airlines during the 1960s and 70s. Operating until the late 70s and early 80s, it was often replaced by jets like DC-9 and 737s. Initially designed for smaller regional carriers as replacements for CV-340 and Martin 404, this aircraft featured Allison Turboprop engines, providing increased power, speed, and efficiency. Despite being phased out for many, the CV-580 continued to serve in freight and charter operations well into the 2000s; however, most are now retired with a few still operating globally today.
