V Douglas DC-8 (znan tudi kot McDonnell Douglas DC-8) je štirimotorno ozkotrupno reaktivno potniško letalo dolgega dosega, ki ga je med letoma 1958 in 1972 izdelala družba Douglas Aircraft Company. DC-8, ki je bil lansiran po konkurenčnem Boeingu 707, je kljub temu ohranil Douglas v močnem položaju na trgu letal in ostal v proizvodnji do leta 1972, ko so ga začeli nadomeščati večji širokotrupni modeli, vključno z Boeingom 747, McDonnellom Douglasom DC-10 in Lockheedom L-1011 TriStar. Zasnova DC-8 mu je omogočila nekoliko večjo prostornino tovora kot 707, nekateri predelani DC-8 pa se še vedno uporabljajo kot tovorna vozila.

Več informacij:

text The Douglas DC-8 is a four-engine jet airliner that was manufactured by the American company Douglas Aircraft Company from 1958 to 1972. The DC-8 was the first jet airliner to enter service with American Airlines, and competed with the Boeing 707 and the Convair 880 in the transcontinental and transatlantic markets. The DC-8 was known for its reliability, performance, and versatility, as it could operate from short, medium, and long-range routes, as well as from hot and high-altitude airports.
The DC-8 was also the first commercial jet to fly faster than the speed of sound in a controlled dive, achieving a speed of Mach 1.012 in 1961. The DC-8 was produced in seven variants, with a total of 556 aircraft built. The DC-8 was later converted into freighters, military transports, and research aircraft. Some of the DC-8s are still in service today, mainly as cargo planes.
