The model is a near-scale replica with accurate dimensions, featuring textured details. It has animatable features such as propellers, ailerons, flaps, elevators, landing gear, and landing gear doors. The aircraft was available in multiple formats. In the 1960s and 1970s, the Convair CV-580 was a popular choice for medium-haul, medium-load commercial airlines. It operated with major and regional carriers until the late 70s and early 80s when it was replaced by jets like DC-9 and 737s. Intended for smaller regional operators as an upgrade from CV-340 and Martin 404, the CV-580 had Allison Turboprop engines for enhanced power, speed, and efficiency. Many carriers used it for freight and charter operations into the 2000s, though most have retired now with a few still in service globally.
