Further question:

Does the 707-320C count as a combi. It mentions in the blurb that is a convertible and it has a high carco capacity but also a high passenger capacity.

[groundbum2]

no the C just means it's a bit more advanced, it's not a combi.

"The 707-320C has a convertible passenger–freight configuration, which became the most widely produced variant of the 707. The 707-320C added a strengthened floor and a new cargo door to the -320B model. The wing was fitted with three-section leading-edge flaps which allowed the deletion of the underfin. A total of 335 of this variant were built, including some with JT3D-7 engines (19,000 lbf (85 kN) takeoff thrust) and a takeoff weight of 335,000 lb (152,000 kg). Most -320Cs were delivered as passenger aircraft with airlines hoping the cargo door would increase second-hand values. The addition of two additional emergency exits, one on either side aft of the wing raised the maximum passenger limit to 219".

Admittedly from wikipedia

DC8 it is

Unfortunately in game it's not a combi, though it would be great if it could be. The B707 family could use one.
