Aeroclassics BOAC Douglas DC-4 Canadair C-4/C-5/DC-4M/C-54 North Star/Argonaut G-ALHJ Scale 1/400 ACGALHJ

A beautifully detailed model of the Canadair Argonaut, operated by BOAC and representing aircraft G-ALHJ. Derived from the Douglas DC-4 platform and known variously as the C-4, C-5, DC-4M, and North Star, the Argonaut was a key transatlantic airliner in the early post-war years. Featuring piston engines adapted from Rolls-Royce Merlin technology, it offered improved performance over standard DC-4 variants. Aeroclassics has captured this historic aircraft in 1:400 scale with excellent precision, making it a standout piece for collectors of classic propliners.

Model Details:

• Manufacturer: Aeroclassics
• Airline: BOAC (British Overseas Airways Corporation)
• Aircraft Type: Canadair Argonaut (DC-4M / C-54 North Star variant)
• Registration: G-ALHJ

Why This Model Stands Out:
The Argonaut played a vital role in BOAC’s long-haul operations during the late 1940s and 1950s, bridging the gap between wartime transports and modern airliners. Its distinctive Merlin engine configuration and historical significance make it a fascinating and desirable subject for collectors.
