The conversion — carried out by Israel Aerospace Industries Bedek Division with support from Boeing and GECAS — transformed a retired 747-400 passenger jet into a cargo workhorse, establishing the technical template for subsequent 747-400BCF conversions worldwide. Cathay Pacific Cargo received B-HOU into its freighter fleet in September 2005.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLivery \u0026amp; Visual Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe model renders Cathay Pacific Cargo's dark green and white livery: a white fuselage with \"CATHAY PACIFIC CARGO\" in large dark green lettering, a dark green nose cone, a thin red pinstripe at the fuselage-tail junction, and the iconic white brushstroke bird logo on the dark green vertical stabiliser. The fuselage carries the inscription \"First Boeing Converted Freighter\" along with the four programme partners — Cathay Pacific, Boeing, IAI Bedek, and GECAS.

The historical significance of B-HOU as the world's first BCF conversion gives this release a documentary dimension beyond typical airline livery collecting. The aircraft marks the beginning of the 747-400 passenger-to-freighter conversion programme that extended the operational life of dozens of airframes across multiple cargo operators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScale\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1:400\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRegistration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eB-HOU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAircraft Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBoeing 747-467(BCF)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEngines\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRolls-Royce RB211-524H\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength (model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17.67 cm \/ 6.89 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWingspan (model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.11 cm \/ 6.28 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiecast Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel Item #\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCW25013\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo ensure you receive a flawless model, we perform a mandatory physical inspection on every item before shipment.
