The Douglas DC-8 (also known as the McDonnell Douglas DC-8) is a narrow-body airliner built by the Douglas Aircraft Company. The aircraft was derived from a 1954 Air Force tanker contract which was won by Boeing. The first DC-8 was rolled out in Long Beach Airport on 9 April 1958 and flew for the first time on 30 May. The DC-8 entered service with Delta Air Lines on September 18.
The six-abreast, low wing airliner was a four-engined jet aircraft, the initial variants are 151 ft (46 m) long. The initial DC-8-10 was powered by Pratt & Whitney JT3C turbojets; the DC-8-20 had more powerful JT4A turbojets. The intercontinental models had more fuel capacity. The DC-8 was produced until 1972 with 556 aircraft built. It was superseded by larger wide-body airliners including Douglas' DC-10. Some re-engined planes are still in use as freighters.
