Overview

The Martin M-130 is a rare but influential plane that was designed and built by the Glenn L. Martin Company.

The M-130s maiden flight was on December 30, 1934. On November 22, 1935, the China Clipper, piloted by Captain Edwin C. Musick and First Officer R.O.D. Sullivan flew the first trans-Pacific airmail route. Their range and capacity made them prime candidates to fulfill the over ocean hauling needs of the military during World War. In 1942, the two remaining planes were impressed into transport roles for the U Navy. In 1943, a crash occurred when the Phlippine Clipper hit the side of a mountain as it descended to land in San Francisco and the final M-130 casualty was the China Clipper NC14716, after it was wrecked at Port of Spain.

The M-30 is an all-metal flying boat employing streamlined aerodynamics and powerful engines to achieve Pan Ams specifications for range and payload
