1:400 Diecast: Aerolineas Argentinas Cargo Boeing 737-800BCF LV-CTC (NG Models)

A Milestone in Argentine Aviation: This 1:400 scale diecast model celebrates a historic first for South America’s iconic carrier. LV-CTC (MSN 30570, Line 765) is the very first dedicated freighter in the history of Aerolíneas Argentinas Cargo. Delivered in early 2023, this 737-800BCF (Boeing Converted Freighter) marked the airline's bold entry into the dedicated logistics market, breaking a 17-year streak of only carrying cargo in the bellies of passenger planes.

From Passenger Jet to Logistics Powerhouse

Before its transformation, LV-CTC had a long career as a passenger aircraft, originally flying for Virgin Blue and Virgin Australia (as VH-VOM). Now repainted in the vibrant "Sky Blue and White" cargo livery, it serves as the backbone of Aerolíneas Argentinas' domestic and regional cargo network. Powered by reliable CFM56-7B engines, this "Converted Freighter" is a testament to the 737's enduring versatility, capable of hauling 24 tons of freight across the continent.

NG Models Industry-Leading Detail

Produced by NG Models, this 1:400 replica is prized for its structural accuracy. The model perfectly captures the main deck cargo door markings, the specialized BCF window-plugged fuselage, and the classic Aerolíneas Argentinas branding. At 9.87 cm long, it features finely detailed engine fans, accurate antennas, and the characteristic 737-800 winglets. For collectors of South American aviation, freighter conversions (BCF), or NG Models' 737 series, LV-CTC is a "must-have" historical piece representing the dawn of a new era for Argentina's national airline.
