55129 United Airlines B747-122 'Friend Ship'- now available

One of the UA fleet of B747-122 wearing the 'Four Star friend Ship' titles introduced in 1973 to promote the slogan 'fly the friendly skies'. Unique feature of UA livery in the 1970s is white fuselage with polished belly, this is well replicated in our model. The red/white/blue combination is very different from today's color schemes. The upper wing represents early type with bare metal wing box and gray surface, with silver edge. P&W engines are faithfully installed on the silver pylons. For those very few collectors that are still seriously interested, this model is licensed and approved. United will go after those that are unlicensed.

55120 United Airlines B747-422 o/c - now available

Several collectors were arguing on the color of the orange/red/blue strips. You cannot make judgement using photo or magazine as reference. First, the color separation of the printed photo may be off. Second, the oxidization of the paint on the real B747-422 tended to be real fast, thus the color would fade. Our model has been approved by United, therefore it is the correct representation of United's corporate image.



The unique underbelly gray is rather difficult to do. It involved many steps to do it right.




Our United family with different color schemes.
