The Boeing 247 was a trendsetter in the early 1930s. It was the first airliner to have an all-metal, stressed-skin, low-drag airframe and a retractable landing gear. Even when the bigger and better DC-2 and DC-3 arrived, the 247s continued to give excellent service over the next 20 years. Flight dynamics by FSAviator.
