AIR FRANCE 777-300ER HE535618 1:500

Produced to the highest standards, Herpa diecast metal models are developed in collaboration with aircraft manufacturers and the airlines and are recognized by discerning model airplane collectors worldwide for their unparalleled, accurate realism, attention to detail and exceptional quality. True-to-scale, this Herpa 1/500 scale Air France Boeing 777-300ER, named Papeete (which is in Tahiti, and is the capital of French Polynesia), with Registration F-GSQF, measures approximately 5-13/16-inches long with a 5-1/16-inch wingspan. A Display Stand is not included and is sold separately - Herpa HE521024. Currently the most "ordered and delivered" widebody airliner flying today, even having overtaken the Queen of the Skies, the iconic Boeing 747, the Boeing 777 is a wide-body, twin-engine, long-range airliner that was conceived by Boeing in 1990 not only to bridge the existing gap between its 767 and 747 aircraft, but also to replace the aging DC-10s and L-1011s that were nearing retirement with a modern, more fuel efficient aircraft. Able to accommodate up to 396 passengers with ten abreast seating in a conventional 2 class configuration, the Boeing 777-300ER (Extended Range version), which went into service in April 2004 with Air France as its launch customer, not only has additional fuel capacity as well as an increased Maximum Takeoff Weight over the standard Boeing 777-300 - for a range of 7,310 nautical miles - it is also more fuel efficient and has lower operating and maintenance costs than some other rival aircraft in its class produced by both Boeing and Airbus, further bolstering its popularity with airlines seeking new aircraft.
