This model plane is a rare find for collectors and enthusiasts alike. It features a 1:144 scale replica of the Avro Lancastrian, a commercial airliner that was popular in the 1930s and 1940s. The plane is made of white metal and plastic materials and comes in a silver colour. The Corgi Aviation Archive series is known for its high-quality and detailed model planes, and this one is no exception. It comes with a stand and is perfect for display in any collection. The plane was manufactured in 1998 and is a great addition to any aviation-themed toy or game.
The model is one of the earliest lines that Corgi produced. It's general appearance is good, though as with all of their initial products the joins of the major structures are obvious. Nevertheless it is an important subject and one that has only recently been made available as an plastic injection model. As with all Corgi models it can be displayed wheels 'down' or 'up' and It makes a good companion to their Avro York model of the same era and scale.
