Comfy, but wonder how the passengers felt at rough landings.. Never completely happy with the relatively primitive nature of its design, Pan Am asked Sikorsky to work on an improved model (the Sikorsky S-42 clipper) even as the S-40 was first entering service, and only three S-40 clippers were ever built:: NC-80V: American Clipper NC-81V: Caribbean Clipper NC-752V: Southern Clipper

Based on the tail number NC 14716, this plane is a Martin M-130. The name of the plane is "China Clipper". This is the exact plane that was used by Pan American for its first nonstop transpacific flight from Treasure Island to Honolulu in November, 1935.
