The airline operates both international passenger and cargo services. Subsidiary Airlines are Cathay Pacific Cargo, Cathay Dragon, and Air Hong Kong, an all-cargo airline. Significant shareholders are Swire Pacific, Air China, and Qatar Airways.
Convair 880
The Convair 880 is an American narrow-body, four-engined medium-range jet airliner. It first flew on January 27, 1959, and entered service with Delta Air Lines in May 1960.
The Convair 880 was the fastest four-engine commercial jet until the introduction of the Boeing 747. It was produced in two versions, the initial -22 and the improved “-22-M”.
Smaller and faster than its competitors, the Boeing 707 and Douglas DC-8 lacked sufficient demand, so Convair ceased production in 1962 after only three years with 65 airframes built.
The flight crew consists of two pilots and a flight engineer, and the passenger cabin seats up to 110 people. The CV-880 used four General Electric CJ805 axial flow turbojet engines pylon mounted, one under each wing.
