About This Design

Tupolev (Туполев) Tu-104 Airliner Magnet

Tupolev (Туполев) Tu-104 Airliner Magnet

An Aeroflot Tupolev (Туполев) Tu-104 passenger jet. The Tupolev Design Bureau logo also appears. Add your own text. The Tu-104 (NATO assigned the reporting word CAMEL to this aircraft) was the second jet airliner to enter service, the British de Havilland Comet having been the first. It was the sole jetliner in service from 1956-58, when the Comet was grounded after a number of crashes. The Tu-104 carried over 90 million passengers during its service life with Aeroflot (then the world's largest airline). The aircraft was retired in 1986. A number of Tu-104s of various types were used for special applications, including weather research, and as a "vomit comet" reduced-gravity aircraft to parabolic flights allowing cosmonauts to experience short periods of zero gee. Aeroflot's need for a modern aircraft with greater capacity and performance than the piston-engine aircraft it then operated by modifying the Tu-16 Badger bomber. The wings, engines, and tail surfaces of the Tu-16 were retained with the airliner, but the new design adopted a wider, pressurized fuselage designed to accommodate 50 passengers. The glazed, bombardier nose of the Tu-16 was also retained, giving the Tu-104 a distinctly military look. The interiors of Tu-104s built early on were said to resemble Victorian Pullman cars with ornate chandeliers, overstuffed seats, brass serving trays, and chain-flush toilets. But the aircraft, overnight transformed Aeroflot from a lowly-regarded, primarily domestic line, into a major international presence. Those Tu-104s I flew on had a much more utilitarian interior.

Flexible Photo Magnet,7.6 cm x 10.2 cm
WOW! These magnets were exactly what I needed for an apartment door to warn people not to let our cats out! Fantastic that they were customizable, to show and say exactly what I wanted. Ordered them on July 15th and they were at my door on the 18th! Thank you so much! The quality of the printing on the magnets is great!

I loved the magnet and the chance to make them personal. My only complaint is that some of my smaller photos had white edges on one side but they didn’t show up in the preview. Photos were great quality and there was no streaking or pixels
