The Lockheed L-1649 Starliner was the final and most advanced version of the Constellation series built by the Lockheed Corporation. Introduced in 1957, it was designed for ultra-long-range flights and became one of the longest-range piston-engine airliners ever produced, capable of flying nonstop across the Atlantic. With its elegant triple-tail design and powerful radial engines, the Starliner represented the peak of propeller-driven air travel, but it was quickly overshadowed by new jet aircraft such as the Boeing 707, which soon dominated international routes.
