This meticulously scaled model features full texturing, animateable components such as propellers, ailerons, flaps, elevators, landing gear, and landing gear doors, and is available across various formats. The Convair CV-580 was a prominent medium haul, medium load transport aircraft for commercial airlines in the 60s and 70s. It served major and regional airlines until the late 70s and early 80s when it was replaced by jets like DC-9 and 737s. Designed to replace the CV-340 and Martin 404, this aircraft boasted Allison Turboprop engines for enhanced power, speed, and efficiency. Numerous smaller carriers utilized it for freight and charter operations well into the 2000s, though most are now retired. A few remain operational globally.
