The Lockheed Constellation was first introduced in 1943, and served as a long range troop transport for the U.S. Army Air Force. Only a few were produced during the war, but the Constellation truly came into its prime after World War II as a civilian airliner. The Constellation was the world's foremost civilian airliner from the end of World War II until newer jet-engine aircraft rendered it obsolete. The final versions were retired from civilian service in 1967, but a U.S. Navy early warning variant continued in use until 1978. This particular model is styled after the 1049 Super Constellation G, with a detailed finish marking it as a Trans World Airlines craft. This high-quality model is a superb choice for any aviation enthusiast or collector.
