Douglas DC8-72CF French Air Force

Product description

A high-quality model of the McDonnell Douglas DC-8-72CF in the French Air Force livery with registration 46130 (F-RAFF) is a real gem for collectors and aviation history enthusiasts. This aircraft was originally delivered to Finnair in 1970 under the designation OH-LFY and, after being converted to the 72CF version, was taken over by the French Air Force in 1981. The aircraft was assigned to ET 3/60 and served for various purposes, including the transport of VIPs. After leaving the French Air Force, it was sold to Air Transport International (N722CX) in 2005 and subsequently decommissioned in 2008. Today, this model is a valuable artifact of aviation history and an ideal addition to any collection.
