.. and a wing, that is drifting towards a delta wing, although, with the straight trailing edge of
the center wing very Douglas/MDD like !
 
Hi,


indeed,the double deck was not familiar and never the same as Douglas and MD known
double deck designs up to this period (1973).
 
Hi,

This seller has a number of interesting listings of artwork of aircraft I'm not familiar with.

Sorry, no MD-94X, but the model 253, a VTOL passenger aircraft,
using a modified DC-9-10 fuselage. Vertical take-off and landing
should be achieved by fans at the wingtips and in the nose and
by two fans at the rear fuselage, which doubled as cruising engines.
(from Aviation Week, July 1973)

A wind tunnel model of this. These are part of a recent donation that came into the Museum.

Hi,

In my list,there was a MD-805 airliner aircraft,I don't know if it was a typo or not ?.
 
Here's a picture of the D-974C-6, a big 1967 airliner concept with 6 engines and a GTOW of 1.2 million pounds. The logos on the base and the tail fin are from Douglas, with McDonnell added to the fuselage. The cargo version of this airplane is described in Giants of the Sky by Bill Gunston, on page 289. The smaller Boeing 747 made more sense at the time, as airports probably would have had a hard time dealing with typical D-974C-6 passenger loads.
What are the dimensions?
 
Does anyone have information on the exterior height of the DC-8 fuselage as opposed to its width? I looked and looked online but can't find anything. Any help is very appreciated.
