Overview
The McDonnell Douglas DC-8-54/55F represents the earliest freighter versions of the famous DC-8 quadjet, a pioneer of the long-haul jet era. It offers a payload of 41 t and a range of 7,700 km.
The DC-8, entering service in 1959, was one of the very first long-haul commercial quadjets, a direct competitor to the Boeing 707 at the dawn of the jet age.
The -54 and -55 versions were among the first to be converted into pure freighters, paving the way for an entire lineage of DC-8 freighters still operated today.
The DC-8-54/55F suits long-haul general freight requiring a proven aircraft with good range.
