context_page_description: The Boeing 367-80 is an American prototype jet plane. The people who worked at Boeing called the plane the "Dash 80". It was made to show airlines how good jet aircraft were.
  The Dash 80 was the prototype for the Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker and the Boeing 707. It was made in less than two years.
  Only one was made. It is now in the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center at Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia.
context_section_description: By early 1952 the Dash 80 was designed and Boeing's managers allowed it to be made. The Dash 80 was made at Boeing's Renton factory.
  The Dash 80 was finished on May 15, 1954, which was 18 months after the making started.
  Some problems were found with the engines and brakes. The brakes once completely failed when the plane landed, so it went over the runway.
