The model features the classic BEA livery with its distinctive red, white, and black color scheme, including the iconic red tail and cheatline. The aircraft bears registration G-AVFB and showcases remarkable attention to detail including finely printed window lines, accurate engine nacelles, and authentic airline markings. This collectible comes in its original packaging and represents a significant piece of British aviation history from the jet age era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Hawker Siddeley HS121 Trident was a British short to medium-range airliner that first flew in 1962. The Trident 2E variant featured improved engines and increased fuel capacity, allowing for better range and performance. BEA was the launch customer for the Trident, operating it extensively on European routes throughout the 1960s and 1970s. The aircraft was notable for its three rear-mounted engines and T-tail configuration, and it was one of the first airliners to feature advanced avionics including autoland capability. In 1:400 scale, this model measures approximately 12 cm in length with a wingspan of roughly 7 cm, perfectly capturing the sleek lines of this pioneering British jet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🇬🇧 About the Airline\u003cbr\u003eBritish European Airways (BEA) was a major British airline that operated from 1946 to 1974, serving routes across Europe and the UK. As one of the two major state-owned airlines (alongside BOAC), BEA played a crucial role in post-war British aviation development. The airline merged with BOAC in 1974 to form British Airways, creating one of the world's leading carriers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"aviation.brussels","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54183175258458,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/3015\/9446\/files\/P6302236.JPG?v=1779530431","url":"https:\/\/aviation.brussels\/products\/die-cast-model-bea-british-european-airways-hawker-siddeley-hs121-trident-2e-gemini-jets-1-400-with-original-box","provider":"aviation.brussels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
