DC-8 Series 50
DC-8 Series 50

The definitive short-fuselage DC-8 with the same engine that powered the vast majority of 707s, the JT3D. Many earlier DC-8s were converted to this standard. All bar the -55 were certified in 1961. The DC-8-51, DC-8-52 and DC-8-53 all had 17,000 lb(76.1 kN) JT3D-1 or 18,000 lb (80.6 kN) JT3D-3B engines, varying mainly in their weights: 276,000 lb (125,900 kg), 300,000 lb (136,080 kg) and 315,000 lb (142,880 kg) respectively. The DC-8-55 arrived in June 1964, retaining the JT3D-3B engines but with strengthened structure from the freighter versions and 325,000 lb (147,420 kg) maximum weight. 88 DC-8-50s were manufactured plus 14 converted from Series 10/30.
