The Douglas DC-8, a rival to Boeing's 707 series, was developed concurrently and shared similar design elements and capabilities. As one of the first jet airliners capable of intercontinental range and increased capacity, it made history and garnered popularity among airlines. The first DC-8 took flight in 1957, boasting an impressive safety record that saw its use on major airline routes until late in the 1970s. This aircraft features fully textured materials and textures, with animatable turbines, flaps, ailerons, rudder, elevators, and landing gear that can be hidden for "gear up" flights. It's built nearly to scale and available in various formats.
