Herpa 1/500 Air France Boeing 727-200

Although Europe’s airlines never came close to operating the same huge fleets of Boeing’s legendary trijet as the airlines on their home market in the United States, it was nevertheless a centerpiece of the mid-range fleet of several major carriers in the 1970s and 1980s. Therefore, they need to be part of our series of models commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Boeing 727. Air France operated a total of 29 Boeing 727s of the longer -200 series for next to a quarter of a century, from 1968 to 1992. The trijet replaced the locally produced Sud Aviation Caravelle, itself being replaced by the then new Airbus A320.
