Catalog description

L-1049 Super Constellation TWA, part number TAMC119, is a discontinued product from the 2007–2011 catalog. It was last listed at $131.99.

The Lockheed Constellation was first introduced in 1943 and served as a long range troop transport for the U.

S. Army Air Force. Only a few were produced during the war but the Constellation truly came into its prime after World War II as a civilian airliner. The Constellation was the world's foremost civilian airliner from the end of World War II until newer jet-engine aircraft rendered it obsolete. The final versions were retired from civilian service in 1967 but a U.

S. Navy early warning variant continued in use until 1978. This particular model is styled after the 1049 Super Constellation G with a detailed finish marking it as a Trans World Airlines craft. This high-quality model is a superb choice for any aviation enthusiast or collector.
