McDonnell Douglas DC-8
Print Profile(1)
Description
The Douglas DC-8 is a four-engine jet aircraft that Douglas manufactured between 1959 and 1972. It features a narrow body. The DC-8 positioned Douglas among the best in the aviation market and remained in production until 1972, when higher-capacity designs, such as the DC-10, rendered it obsolete. Relegated to a secondary role, the design details of the DC-8 provided it with a significant advantage as a freighter compared to its direct competitor, the Boeing 707; this allowed dozens of DC-8 aircraft to continue in service well into the 2010s, re-engined and performing cargo services for various companies, while the 707's last commercial service occurred in 2000. It was the largest narrow-body (single-aisle) aircraft until 1999 when the 300 series of the Boeing 757 entered service.
