Concorde Airliner Building Block Set
The Concorde, a marvel of supersonic turbojet engineering, soared into the skies in 1969, a joint effort of French and British companies to revolutionize air travel. For 27 illustrious years, this sleek aircraft ferried passengers on Transatlantic routes, whisking them from London Heathrow and Paris Charles de Gaulle to JFK and Dulles with record-breaking speeds, cutting traditional flight times in half. With only 20 of these magnificent planes ever produced due to their high costs, the Concorde left an indelible mark on aviation history, culminating in its final flight on November 26, 2003. Now, COBI brings the Concorde G-BBDG model to life with 455 meticulously crafted blocks, showcasing the test model in British Airways colors that never saw commercial service but played a vital role in supporting the fleet. This detailed replica, complete with pad-printed graphics and functional retractable landing gear, stands as a tribute to aviation aficionados, collectors, and young enthusiasts alike, capturing the spirit of innovation and speed that defined the era of supersonic travel.
