The C-990 Coronado was a narrow-body jet airliner produced by the Convair division of General Dynamics. The C-990 design was based on Convair's earlier C-880, the C-990 was a "stretched" version and was produced in response to a request from American Airlines. American Airlines requested that Convair design an aircraft for coast-to-coast flights, able to fly nonstop New York to Los Angeles against westerly winds. The 990 entered production in 1961. Unfortunately, American Airlines timetables show little or no difference in scheduled time between Boeing 707 and C-990 flights; and as a result AA began to dispose of its C-990s in 1967. When AA and other major airlines retired their Convair 990s, they found a second life operating for charter airlines. Spantax of Spain had a large fleet until they were gradually retired in the mid 1980s. This specific model is painted in the American Airlines paint scheme. American Airlines is a major U.S. airline headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas. American Airlines operates an extensive international and domestic network, with scheduled flights throughout North America, the Caribbean, South America, Europe, and Asia/Pacific.

C-990 American Review

The CV 990 was a speedster for its day and able to do Mach .91. She was powered by the civilian version of the F-104 engine. Interestingly, the fan was located at the rear of the engine pod rather than at the front. Less than 100 were built and she was eventually overshadowed by the Boeing 707. Some 50 years later there are very few survivors. None are fly able and only a couple are on static display around the globe. This Convair 990 model is well crafted and displays well. I like the American " Astrojet" paint scheme. The CV 990 offers a nice well -crafted historical example for your collection. Order one now, I think you will be pleased.
