Saudi Arabian Airlines Boeing 747-400 Model Airplane



These Model Airplanes are finely handcrafted, and hand painted by our artists - to scale and museum quality. 18 inches in length with custom models available. The 747-400 is the latest version in service and can accommodate 416 passengers in typical three class layout.

Saudi Arabian Airlines currently operates four B747-400 in commercial service

The Boeing 747 is a widebody commercial airliner, often referred to by the nickname "Jumbo Jet". It is among the world's most recognizable aircraft, and was the first widebody ever produced. Manufactured by Boeing's Commercial Airplane unit in the US, the original version of the 747 was two and a half times the size of the Boeing 707, one of the common large commercial aircraft of the 1960s. First flown commercially in 1970, the 747 held the passenger capacity record for 37 years.

The four-engine 747 uses a double deck configuration for part of its length. The 747 in particular was expected to become obsolete after 400 were sold but it exceeded its critics' expectations with production passing the 1,000 mark in 1993. As of June 2009, 1,416 aircraft have been built, with 107 more in various configurations remaining on order.
