During the post-war era, aircraft manufacturers were scrambling to find a replacement for the venerable DC-3 that had recently exited its wartime duties. Convair of San Diego, California answered the need with the successful series of Convairliner transports that started with the 40 passenger, piston powered CV-240 transport that first flew on 16 March 1947. Into the early 1950's, slightly larger and more powerful versions came to the market in the CV-340 and CV-440, wining airline orders from all corners of the globe.

Registration-marked packaging is personalized to each aircraft to enhance its collectable value. Each model is released only once and never reissued.
