Concorde

A Supersonic Legend with a Droop Snoot

This breathtaking machine was capable of flying at over twice the speed of sound, cutting the journey across the Atlantic to a mere three hours. To achieve such performance, it was equipped with an iconic delta wing and four incredibly powerful turbojet engines with afterburners, a feature commonly used in military fighter jets. Perhaps its most famous technological feature, however, is the specific droop snoot. During takeoff and landing, the nose had to be mechanically lowered so the pilots could see the runway at the very high angle of attack.

Colors of Air France and British Airways

Throughout its career, the Concorde was a prestigious asset of only two national carriers, which is fully reflected in this category. You can enrich your showcase with beautifully aerodynamic models bearing the colors of the French company Air France and the British airline British Airways. Both classic variants and historical liveries such as Landor are represented, adding unmistakable elegance to this supersonic gem. Whether you reach for a metal or plastic model, you will acquire a unique piece of aviation history.
