The Monomail (two built) was designed as a technology demonstrator for all-metal low winged commercial aircraft. Initially intended for mail operations, but here modified with an enlarged cabin for eight passengers. Lessons from this design led to the twin-engined Model 247 in 1933. Obtained from Boeing 60 years ago. This photo was added on 5 October 2017, and has since been viewed 455 times. |
