The story behind the livery
Air Gabon was the national carrier of the Gabonese Republic, operating scheduled and charter services across Africa and to Europe from its Libreville base. By the late 1990s, the Boeing 737-200 had become a cornerstone of the airline's fleet, flying routes that connected Gabon with regional neighbours and the wider world. The 1998 livery features Air Gabon's distinctive colour scheme — a proud expression of the airline's national identity at a time when many African carriers were struggling to modernise. Air Gabon ceased operations in 2006, making its liveries increasingly sought after among collectors of African and rare world airline schemes.
Virtually absent from the scale modelling market, this decal offers a rare opportunity to represent one of francophone Africa's most recognisable airlines in miniature.
