This model represents Boeing 747-400F registration HL7479, an aircraft with a unique place in aviation history. In September 1994, HL7479 encountered a severe hailstorm near Elba, Italy, sustaining extensive damage to its radome, cockpit windows, and engines. Despite the damage, the crew safely flew the aircraft to Zürich. After temporary repairs, the aircraft was ferried to Korea for permanent repairs. During that ferry flight, the aircraft was involved in another notable incident during takeoff from Zürich due to incorrect ferry-flight performance calculations. Both events are well documented in aviation safety records, making HL7479 a particularly interesting registration for collectors of historic airliner models. Measuring approximately 26.5 inches (67 cm) in length, this is an impressive display model that makes a centerpiece in any aviation or airline memorabilia collection.Please feel free to message me with any questions or if you’d like additional photos.
