Airfix - Boeing 314 Clipper - 1:144
Product Code:
A04172V
Representing one of the most glamorous aircraft
types to ever take to the skies, the Boeing 314 Clipper was produced to
allow passengers and cargo to travel across the vast expanses of the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans, in levels of style and comfort which
rivalled those on the great ocean liners. Twelve aircraft were
produced for Pan American World Airways and BOAC, however, the start of
the Second World War resulted in these opulent flying boats being used
mainly for military purposes, with aircraft serving as transport for
Franklin D Roosevelt and Winston Churchill.
