Production Background:
The 747SP was built by Boeing at the urgent request of Pan Am and Iran Air to compete with the mid-sized Douglas DC-10 and Lockheed L-1011. It was 47 feet shorter than Boeing's 747-100 aircraft to accomplish greater range to serve New York-Tehran routing non-stop
.
TWA accepted deliveries of three 747SP's in May 1980, with the second ship bearing the name "Boston Express".
In February 1985, this ship left TWA and entered service with American Airlines from 1986-1994.
Only 45 Boeing 747 SP's were built by Boeing, making this model a hard to find, sought-after collectible.
