Historical Description of the Aircraft

The Boeing S-307 Stratoliner made history as the world's first passenger aircraft with a pressurized cabin. It was designed and produced in the United States in the late 1930s and early 1940s. The aircraft was primarily used by Pan American Airways and Transcontinental & Western Air (TWA). Several units were also used by the US Army Air Forces as transports during World War II (designated C-75). The Stratoliner was used before the outbreak of the war and during its early years, enabling more comfortable transcontinental and transatlantic travel thanks to its breakthrough pressurized cabin.
