This is a die-cast metal and plastic display aircraft.
The world's first turbo-prop airliner was the British made Vickers Viscount. The first flight took place in 1948 with a more powerful-engined Type 700 taking flight on August 3, 1950. A stretched variant named Type 800 was 3 feet 10 inches longer with even more power and a new fuel system, and flew on July 27, 1956. It could carry 71 passengers so it soon was operating with about 70 airlines and 9 militaries around the world. Production ended in 1964 with 445 aircraft of all types produced.
This completed model includes an optional undercarriage.
