On 19 December 1962 the Belgian civil registry recorded the airframe, and by 7 October 1969 it was transferred to the Nigerian Air Force as NAF-307. Its final documented location was Kaduna, where it stood derelict. The C-47 served Sabena during the postwar reconstruction era when Belgium rebuilt its intercontinental air links—the aircraft operated alongside DC-4s and DC-6s connecting Brussels to the Congo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLivery \u0026amp; Visual Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe model depicts the classic Sabena natural-metal-and-white scheme. The upper fuselage is gloss white; the lower fuselage, wing undersides, and engine nacelles are polished silver. A prominent dark-blue cheatline divides the two surfaces and dips toward the nose, which is painted solid dark blue. \"SABENA\" appears in bold dark-blue block letters mid-fuselage, with a small Belgian tricolor flag immediately to the left. The registration OO-AWN is printed on the aft fuselage. The vertical stabilizer is dark blue with a large white stylized \"S\" and a multi-color Sabena crest below it. Both three-bladed propellers are rendered in metallic silver. The wing type is the classic rounded-tip DC-3 planform with no winglets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eModel Craft \u0026amp; Collectibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHerpa Wings item HE573399 reproduces this Belgian classic at 1:200 scale in diecast metal with pad-printed markings. The C-47 mould captures the distinctive tail-dragger stance, round radial engine nacelles, and elliptical windows of the original Douglas design. At 1:200, the wing span allows detailed rendering of the cheatline graphics that defined Sabena's postwar identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScale\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1:200\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRegistration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOO-AWN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAircraft Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDouglas C-47A Skytrain (DC-3)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMSN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12767\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEngines\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePratt \u0026amp; Whitney R-1830 Twin Wasp (radial)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength (model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9.85 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWingspan (model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14.50 cm\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\u003eHE573399\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.
