Convair 440 Metropolitan OH-LRB

The Aviation Museum’s Convair 440 Metropolitan OH-LRB ‘Old Lady’ is the aircraft with the longest service history in Finnair’s history. Aero Oy’s Convair CV-440 Metropolitan OH-LRB transported passengers and cargo for a total of 27 years. Finnish airlines Finnair and Kar-Air had a total of 9 Convair aircraft in use from the 1950s to the 1980s. Even today, Convairs are still flying as cargo planes around the world. The Convair is a favorite among all our museum visitors, where its narrow aisle still evokes the atmosphere of old, leisurely travel.
