From 1939 until 1974 British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) was the British state airline. In 1974 BOAC merged with British European Airways Corporation to become British Airways. BOAC operated 10 DC-7C “Seven Seas” they had purchased because of the delay manufacturing the Bristol Britannia. One DC-7C was G-AOIB c/n 45112 that the airline operated from November 1956 until March 1964 when it was sold. The airframe went on to become N90802 with the tour company “Jolly Voyager” and later was converted into a water-bomber EC-888 and later EC-GGB with Basaer.
Designed to meet an American Airlines requirement for a long-range passenger airliner with superior performance to the Lockheed Super Constellation, the DC-7 was first flown on May 18th, 1953. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
