AeroClassics Eastern Air Lines Lockheed L-188 Electra N5501 Scale 1/400 ACN5501

This AeroClassics 1:400 scale model represents the Eastern Air Lines Lockheed L-188 Electra N5501, finished in the airline’s classic Eastern Air Lines livery.

The Lockheed L-188 Electra was one of the first generation of modern turboprop airliners, introduced in the late 1950s. Designed to bridge the gap between piston-engine aircraft and jets, it offered higher speeds, improved reliability, and greater efficiency on short to medium-haul routes.

Eastern Air Lines was one of the primary operators of the Electra in the United States, using the aircraft extensively on domestic routes. Aircraft N5501 formed part of this fleet during a transformative period in aviation as airlines transitioned from propeller-driven aircraft to jets.

This highly detailed diecast model by AeroClassics features accurate markings and landing gear, making it an excellent addition for collectors of classic American airlines and early turboprop aircraft.
