This is perhaps AF1's best model. At 1:130 scale, this massive aircraft is heavy and solid. It has moveable control surfaces, rolling wheels and is beautifully painted and detailed. Panel lines, windows, doors, all the little details that make a model come to life are here.
The Y-20 is pretty much impossible to find with any other manufacturer. At this scale, if you're a fan of cargo jets are lesser known aircraft - this is a must have!
She comes with a metal stand or rests confidently on her landing gear. For the asking price, this is a really surprising find! Get this while it's in stock because I feel once these are sold, no one is going to want to part with theirs.
