The Boeing 314 was a
very long-range passenger aircraft
produced between 1938 and 1941 designed for flights across
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
Using the massive wing
of the earlier XB-15 aircraft to obtain
the required range, the aircraft was one of the largest aircraft
of its day.
Twelve examples were
built, intended for the high-end of
the market with luxurious appointments. However their
service was interrupted by WW2 and following the end of
that war they were quickly made obsolete by the construction
of good quality airfields worldwide and the development of
long-range land-based aircraft.
This CD contains the flight and maintenance
manuals for
this magnificent aircraft, and has been scanned from copies
of the original flight manuals.
