Brief History:
This was the very "First" Virgin Atlantic B747-400 G-VFAB. Delivered in April 1994 and flew for the British carrier until its retirement in Sept 2015.

*Lady Penelope was painted in this special livery in 2005 to celebrate Virgin's 21st Anniversary, she was subsequently renamed Birthday Girl.

On this livery they enlarged the 'Virgin Girl' and placed her at the rear with the illusion that the tail with the words Virgin is a flag which she is flying.

*None of my models have been displayed, otherwise stated in description - All well kept in dry smoke/kids/pet free environment. Boxes may have been open over the years for time to time inspection of the model, therefore the cardboard packaging may have some long term shelf life, wear & tear etc. Internal shell protection may encounter decoloring of plastics due to age. (though this is pristine).
