McDonnell Douglas DC-8 Series 60

The Douglas DC-8 is a narrow-body airliner manufactured by the Douglas Aircraft Company, introduced in 1958. The project for this jetliner was initiated by Douglas following a prior competition loss to the Boeing KC-135 in 1955. The DC-8, directly derived from the proposed aircraft for the competition, quickly gained popularity upon the commencement of deliveries. The DC-8 Series 60 was later introduced, with the initial model in the series, the DC-8 Series 61, undergoing several modifications. While designed for higher capacity, it initially sacrificed the range of the DC-8, a drawback later addressed in subsequent developments within the Series 60.

Red Box is delighted to offer an extensive range of ground power equipment for this aircraft, including tugs, ground power units, start power units and more, meticulously tailored to meet the specific requirements of Douglas DC-8 Series 60 aircraft.
