Boeing 307 - airplanes
The Boeing Model 307 Stratoliner was the first commercial transport aircraft with a pressurized cabin. This feature allowed the plane to cruise at an altitude of 20 000 ft (6 000 m) well above weather disturbances. The pressure differential was 2.5 psi (17 kPa) so at 14 700 ft (4 480 m) the cabin altitude was 8 000 ft (2 440 m). The Model 307 had capacity for a crew of five and 33 passengers. The cabin was nearly 12 ft (3.6 m) across.
Howard Hughes owned one of the 10 Boeing 307 made in the late
1930s.1
