The story behind the livery
Far Eastern Air Transport was one of Taiwan's leading private carriers during the 1960s and 1970s, operating the elegant Vickers Viscount on domestic routes across the island at a time when turboprop airliners defined the passenger experience. The 1975 livery reflects the airline's classic styling at its peak — a bold and distinctive scheme that captures the confidence of Taiwan's rapidly expanding civil aviation sector during the early economic miracle years.
The Vickers Viscount was a rare and sophisticated choice for Asian carriers of this era, and FAT's operation of the type makes for one of the most distinctive Viscount subjects available for Taiwanese aviation modelers. Pair this decal with the FAT Viscount 1977 scheme for a complete portrait of the airline's evolving livery.
