Italeri 1:72 Breitling DC-3

A group of enthusiasts managed to fly from Florida to Switzerland with a DC-3, built in 1940, and there it was registered as HB-IRJ. Breitling used it as an advertising medium and the user is the Super Constellation Flyers Association. On March 12, 1940, the aircraft was put into service by American Airlines. In the meantime, he has accumulated more than 74,000 flight hours and is still in excellent condition today. The speed reached is 250 km/h and the plane does not have a pressurized cabin. The crew consists of two pilots and a flight attendant. The DC-3 can also land at airports with a hard or grass runway with a length of more than 1,100m.

Part of our legacy collection, this kit is in 'as new' condition but has now been discontinued by Italeri.
