Herpa 614467 TWA Trans World Airlines Lockheed L-1049G Super Constellation - N7104C
Would you like to add a true masterpiece of classic aviation to your collection? With the Lockheed L-1049G Super Constellation in Trans World Airlines livery, you’ll receive a model of one of the most elegant and famous aircraft in civil aviation history.
The development of the Constellation family was largely driven by the famous entrepreneur and pilot Howard Hughes and his airline Transcontinental & Western Air, later known as TWA. After World War II, the series evolved rapidly, culminating in the Super Constellation, which is considered the pinnacle of this generation of aircraft.
Iconic aircraft with historical significance
The L-1049G Super Constellation was deployed by TWA on long-haul routes starting in 1951 and shaped international air travel for many years. In total, the airline operated 47 aircraft of this type, which remained in service until 1968. The model thus represents a significant chapter in aviation history.
Its characteristic shape, with its curved lines and distinctive tail surfaces, makes the “Super Connie” one of the most elegant aircraft ever built. This model captures precisely this unique aesthetic in miniature form.
Snap-Fit model for easy assembly
The model is part of the Herpa SnapFit series and comes as a plastic snap-fit kit. Assembly requires no glue or tools and can be completed in just a few simple steps. This makes the model suitable for both beginners and experienced collectors.
A display stand is included in the package, allowing for an attractive presentation of the model immediately after assembly.
Classic aircraft in 1:125 scale
The elegant lines of the Super Constellation are particularly well highlighted in 1:125 scale. The typical color scheme of white, red, and gray underscores the classic appearance of TWA aircraft from that era.
The model is ideal for collectors of historic aircraft and adds a significant and style-defining aircraft model to any collection.
