Lockheed L-1649A Starliner TWA "Star of Wyoming"

As I'm the Constellation enthusiast I just had to buy this one.
I got it from the auction for a good price. Thankfully, there're not too many Connie fanatics in Poland
Model looks great, full metal(it's quite heavy), rubber tires and the iconic TWA markings. Details are also impressive.
Herpa, scale 1/200

Enjoy the pictures

Not only yours, my friend. The Connie is without any doubt the most aesthetic and beautiful airliner EVER designed. Fortunately, we have plenty examples by several printers. Also plastic and metal. The plane deserves to be remembered eternally.

Have you seen my recent Lockheed XC-69, the very first version of the Connie? Available on Ecardmodels (look for Papertrade), or via my site zeistbouwplaten.nl, or with a pm to me.
