NC19903 (cn 2003) First flown in 1938, the Boeing 307 was the first airliner with a pressurized fuselage. It could transport 33 passengers in great comfort and cruise at 6,096 meters (20,000 feet), while maintaining a cabin pressure of 2,438 meters (8,000 feet). The Stratoliner incorporated the wings, tail and engines of the Boeing B-17C bomber. Ten Stratoliners were built. This one was flown by Pan American as the Clipper Flying Cloud. |

NC19903 (cn 2003) This is the only remaining Stratoliner. Only 10 were built, of which 3 operated by Pan Am. This one, "Clipper Flying Cloud", was delivered to Pan Am in March 1940. It was restorted in 2001 but crashed in Seattle, and had to be completely restored again in 2002. In August 2003 she made her final cross-country trip to be preserved here at the Udvar-Hazy Museum. |
