Phoenix China Airlines Boeing 747-100 B-1860 1:400 Diecast Model

1:400 Diecast: China Airlines Boeing 747-132 B-1860 "Retro Flag Livery" (Phoenix Models)

A Pioneer of the Trans-Pacific Era: This 1:400 scale diecast model replicates a foundational piece of Taiwan’s aviation history. B-1860 (MSN 19744, Line 72) was originally a Boeing 747-132 delivered to Delta Air Lines before joining China Airlines in 1975. Dressed in the iconic "Red, White, and Blue" Retro Livery, this airframe features the historic flag on the tail, representing the carrier’s identity prior to the 1995 "Plum Blossom" rebranding.

Classic 747-100 Features: Produced by Phoenix Models, this replica captures the early "Jumbo Jet" profile with precision. The model highlights the three-window upper deck configuration typical of the early -100 series and accurately rendered Pratt & Whitney JT9D-7A engines. The crisp tampo printing handles the complex cheatline and vintage titles with high-fidelity execution, essential for collectors focusing on 1970s Asian aviation or 747 Classic fleet history.

Operational Reliability: Throughout its service life, B-1860 maintained a clean safety record, serving as a reliable long-haul workhorse before its eventual retirement. This diecast metal model includes rolling rubber tires and fine-scale antennas, offering a solid, scale-accurate representation of one of the first "Queens" to fly for China Airlines.
