The Convair CV-580 was a prominent aircraft used by commercial airlines during the 1960s and 70s for medium haul, medium load transportation. Operating with major carriers until the late '70s and early '80s, it was superseded by jets such as DC-9 and 737s. Built for regional airlines as replacements for CV-340 and Martin 404 models, this aircraft featured Allison Turboprop engines that enhanced power, speed, and efficiency. Even after being replaced, the CV-580 continued to serve smaller carriers for freight and charter operations well into the 2000s. While many have been retired, some still remain in service worldwide. This model, accurately scaled and textured, boasts animatable features like propellers, ailerons, flaps, elevators, landing gear, and landing gear doors in various formats for your modeling pleasure.
