Dwight Eisenhower used this aircraft, designated a VC-121 and named “Columbine”, from 1950 to 1952 when he was commander in chief of the allied forces in Europe. He would later make the Constellation VC 121 the presidential aircraft. Essentially it is the predecessor to the modern day “Air Force 1”.
Designed to meet Pan Am and TWA requirements for a 40 passenger airliner, the Constellation was first flown in its military version of C69 on January 9th, 1943.© Copyright 2003-2009 The Flying Mule, Inc.
