The coupé and convertible models were not badged as members of the range but used a derivative of the same platforms.

Boeing 80

A three-engined biplane, the Model 80 was built by the Boeing Airplane Company for Boeing's own airline, Boeing Air Transport, successfully carrying both airmail and passengers on scheduled services. Development and design Boeing Air Transport was formed on February 17, 1927 by William Boeing to operate the Contract Air Mail (CAM) service between San Francisco and Chicago (CAM.18), taking over the route on July 1, 1927.Davies ''Air Enthusiast'' January/February 2007, pp. 66-67.
