Customize - Commercial Douglas DC-7 For a larger view, click on thumbnail. The Douglas DC-7 was built by the Douglas Aircraft Company from 1953 to 1958. It was the last major piston engine powered airplane made by Douglas. The DC-7 was one of the first airliners capable of nonstop trans Atlantic crossings between New York and London. The DC-7 prototype flew for the first time on May 18 1953, and the DC-7 entered service with American Airlines that November. Production of the initial DC-7 was solely for US domestic operators. The improved DC-7B had the same dimensions as the DC-7, but carried extra fuel, allowing PanAm to advertise nonstop New York to London starting in June 1955. The DC-7B could fly New York to London nonstop, weather conditions often forced reverse services to make a refueling stop at Gander. This operational hurdle gave Douglas the insight to develop the ultimate DC-7 model, the DC-7C or what many called the "Seven Seas". The DC-7C featured extra fuel capacity, a 10 foot fuselage stretch and more powerful engines, and could cross the North Atlantic nonstop in either direction. The DC-7C entered service in April 1956. Today a small number of DC-7s are still in operation, mainly as freighters and for firebombing.
