The Model 417 local service transport was ordered into quantity production at Boeing Wichita in 1946. This cutaway drawing of the two-engine, high-wing plane with tricycle landing gear, shows the basic arrangement whereby it was to have accommodated 20 passengers with a large cargo compartment at the rear and a smaller cargo compartment and hand luggage spaces at the front. The Model 417 was to have been offered with alternate interiors. However, the program was cancelled before production could get off the ground.
