Artist's conception of Convair's newly-designed 30-passenger Mode! 110 transport. Seen here is forward loading hatch, with passenger entrance at tail. Planned payload of craft is 8,000 lb., and estimated top speed is 322 mph. Tricycle landing gear with dual wheels, Fowler type flops, and four-blade reversible pitch propellers are to be installed. Note gull wings and truncation at rear of engine nacelles.
