To my eyes, the Lockheed Model 10 Electra was a much nicer looking plane (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_Model_10_Electra https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_Model_10_Electra). It was also Amelia Earhart's choice for her round-the-world attempt.
There's one on display in the Science Museum in London: https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co29932/lockheed-10a-electra-serial-no-1037-1935-aircraft-aeroplanes-radioactivity https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co29932...
