This photograph showcases the sleek and innovative Boeing 247, specifically NC13361, of United Air Lines. The Boeing 247, a landmark in aviation history, was the world's first modern transport aircraft, setting new standards for speed, range, and passenger comfort upon its introduction in 1933. With its streamlined design and advanced features, such as retractable landing gear and a fully enclosed cabin, the Boeing 247 revolutionized air travel. NC13361, registered to United Air Lines, was one of the most famous Boeing 247s and was in service from 1934 to 1941. This particular aircraft was involved in several notable events during its tenure, including a record-breaking transcontinental flight from New York to Los Angeles in 11 hours and 15 minutes. In this photograph, NC13361 is seen taxiing on the tarmac, its powerful engines idling as it prepares for takeoff. The passengers, dressed in fashionable attire of the era, can be seen boarding the aircraft through the rear stairs. The ground crew members, dressed in their uniforms, are busy with final preparations, ensuring that everything is in order before the plane departs. This photograph is a testament to the excitement and innovation of the early days of aviation, a time when air travel was a new and wondrous experience. The Boeing 247, and NC13361 in particular, played a significant role in shaping the future of air travel and inspiring a new generation of aviation enthusiasts.
