Description
This exquisite 1:500 scale die-cast model by Herpa represents an Austrian Airlines McDonnell-Douglas MD-87 with registration markings. The model features the airline's distinctive livery with red tail section and fuselage accents, complemented by a blue cheatline running along the white fuselage. Named 'Klagenfurt' as indicated on the nose, this miniature captures the elegant proportions of the MD-87 with remarkable precision. Crafted from high-quality metal with authentic tampo-printed details, this collectible showcases Herpa's commitment to accuracy in recreating commercial aviation history.
The McDonnell-Douglas MD-87 is a shortened derivative of the MD-80 series, designed for shorter routes with reduced passenger capacity while maintaining excellent fuel efficiency. With its distinctive rear-mounted twin Pratt & Whitney JT8D engines and T-tail configuration, the MD-87 offered airlines a versatile solution for regional and medium-haul operations. The aircraft measures 39.75 meters in length with a wingspan of 32.86 meters and a height of 9.02 meters, making it compact enough for challenging airports while still providing comfortable seating for approximately 130 passengers in typical configurations.
