Introduced as Boeing’s shorter-range alternative to the 707, the new Tri-Jet airliner was intended to fly out of smaller airports that its heavier counterpart could not operate from. Introduced in the mid-1960s after flying in ’63, the iconic T-tail and engine design would set it apart from others in its class.

Up to 134 passengers can be seated in the 727-200 variant, with a crew of three in the nose including the flight engineer upon introduction. Later in its life, this assortment would shrink back to 2 pilots, as modern aircraft systems automate the process. Powering the aircraft is a set of three Pratt & Whitney JT8D engines which create around 45,000 lbs combined thrust on takeoff, with one on the tail and two under the wings. Altitude ceiling of the jet is 42,000 ft, with a cruising speed of 593 mph and a maximum weight of 172,000 lbs.

Serving from its delivery in the late 1960s until Braniff’s disbandment in 1989, the Boeing 727-200 fleet had a large variety of liveries in their “End of the Plain Plane” campaign, but this one features the “Calder” bicentennial livery. Die-Cast version features an accurate paint scheme, etched panel lines, pad printed decals, and detailed landing gear for display. Measures 9.5”l with a 6.5” wingspan at 1:200 scale.
