Few aircraft have captured the romance of early long-distance travel quite like the Constellation. Affectionately known as ‘Connie’, it was celebrated for its speed, graceful lines and distinctive triple-tail design. Although recurring engine troubles earned it the wry description of being the most reliable three-engined aircraft, it went on to set a number of impressive speed and distance records.

This handsome model preserves the Constellation’s unmistakable silhouette, from its four propellers and gently curved fuselage to the individually shaped bulkheads that gave the original aircraft its elegant form. A polished aluminium finish brings out every carefully observed detail, while the sweeping display stand creates the impression of the aeroplane in flight. An inscribed plaque on the base completes the piece with a record of the aircraft’s history and specifications.

A striking addition to a study, office or living room, it makes a thoughtful gift for an aviation enthusiast and a lasting reminder of a remarkable chapter in the story of flight.
