Why this aircraft matters

This 747-300 served South African Airways and carried Nigerian Airways titles during a codeshare partnership in the early 2000s.

It wore the marked registration ZS-SAU. It flew long-haul routes in both passenger and cargo roles.

The aircraft’s extended upper deck reflects its place in the 747 family’s evolution. It appears in photos from Paris and London with the Nigerian branding.

This model represents a rare episode of cross-airline culture in a single airframe. You hold a piece that marks collaboration across nations in aviation.

How to use it

Position it on your desk, showcase it on a shelf, or integrate it into a hangar diorama. Use the included stand to elevate in-flight poses or display with landing gear down for a grounded look. There’s no need for tools, glue, or paints; it’s factory-finished and ready to impress right out of the box.
