TWA Moonliner IV

The TWA Moonliner IV on the restored TWA Headquarters building in Kansas City, Missouri. The original 76 ft. Moonliner was part of Walt Disney’s 1955 Tomorrowland exhibit. Howard Hughes placed a smaller 22 ft. model on the TWA Headquarters in Kansas City. Both Moonliners were eventually sold, the first model ending in a boneyard and the second being found, restored, and exhibited at National Airline History Museum in Kansas City. The current Moonliner on the restored TWA Headquarters building is a replica of number two. (In 1998, a model III was made for Tomorrowland and stands next to Redd Rockett’s Pizza Port.)
