Model of the Brabazon

A 1:120 scale sterling-silver model of a Bristol Brabazon and a Bristol Boxkite aircraft made by Hubert M Brookes. The Bristol Brabazon luxury airliner was designed to fly routes from the UK to the USA. Only one was ever built. Its wingspan was similar in size to a Boeing 747 'Jumbo Jet'.
