The Martin M-130 was a rare but influential plane designed and built by the Glenn L. Martin Company. Only three of these aircraft were built and all were sold to Pan American Airways at $417,000 per copy: the China Clipper, the Philippine Clipper and the Hawaii Clipper.Internally within Martin, they were known as the Martin Ocean Transports. To the public they were all referred to as the China Clipper, a name which evolved into a generic term applying to Pan Am's entire fleet of large flying boats - the Martin M-130, Sikorsky S-42 as well as the Boeing 314 Clipper. |
