I have come across some information on the proposed VC.4 three-engined transatlantic airliner project of 1949. Information on the VC.4 was used to demonstrate aerodynamic drag issues in a Royal Aeronautical Society lecture by E. J. Edwards on 24 November 1949 entitled A Review of Aerodynamic...

From a report about Safety Aircraft,at Cornell University; here is a weird concept for British VTO Jet Transport Airplane of 1955,I can't ID it,can anyone help ?. - If it was just a hypothetical design,we can transfer it to anther section.

It is generally written in histories of Concorde thst the aircraft was not large enough and had insufficient range. But with the benefit of hindsight and the actual operations of British and French airlines might a smaller executive jet version have been a better bet and might still be in...

The German toymaker Schuco produced a nice clockwork toy Boeing 747 in the early 70s..It was about ten inches long and I was treated to a Lufthansa one as a kid. I was fascinated to see that Schuco made a Braniff version, in its famous orange colour scheme. I was surprised to then find a green...

US SST 1960-1971

Back in the 1960s Boeing was telling everyone that its Supersonic 2707 transport would be the must-have airliner for the 1970s. Some 26 airlines took out options on the plane. There is a comprehensive thread about the US designs on this site, but no illustrations of the artwork Boeing must have...

One UK aircraft has been around me more than any other, and no, its not my beloved TSR2, AVS or Boeing SST. It is the VC 10 My Dad made me the Airfix kit. Until recently and from the age of 9 I could watch these elegant planes in their smart RAF colours doing circuits in and out of Brize...

In the very first Thnunderbirds Episode "Trapped in the Sky" the London Airport building features the letters BAOC (based on the British Airways predecessor BOAC) as a rival to the Air Terrainean company who flew the Fireflash. As a BOAC fan I always hoped to see the BAOC version. So 50 years...

The Thunderbirds series from the 1960s featured in its first episode a wonderful airliner called Fireflash, which was totally improbable but looked very cool. In the series it crops up in a few episodes in the livery of "Air Terrainean", a sort of mixture of Pan American and BOAC. However, in...

I found a reference to this from a Boeing brochure, probably from 1996. I have copies of two pages of it, but don't remember where I found it. It's discussing future product plans, highlighting the planned 757-200X and -300X, the upcoming 767-400X, the ultra-long-range 747-100X, and the...
