Preserve a forgotten chapter of West German regional aviation with this historically accurate decal set for the Convair CV-440 Metropolitan in the General Air 1971 livery.

General Air was a small West German regional airline that operated in the late 1960s and early 1970s, offering scheduled and charter services primarily within Germany and to neighboring European destinations. Flying during the era when West Germany's regional aviation market was just beginning to develop, General Air was one of several short-lived carriers that bridged the gap between the major flag carriers and the holiday charter boom. The airline is largely forgotten today, making any surviving photographic or material record — including this decal — a genuine rarity for aviation historians and collectors alike.

This decal set faithfully reproduces the complete 1971 General Air livery: fuselage titles, color scheme, registration markings, and full window lines — all researched from historical sources.

What's included:

  • Full livery decals for the Convair CV-440 Metropolitan (General Air 1971)
  • Fuselage titles, airline markings, and registration numbers
  • Available in scales: 1/144, 1/200, 1/100, 1/72, and 1/48

Decal quality: Printed using high-resolution digital printing technology, delivering sharp edges, accurate colors, and excellent durability. White areas are fully opaque — safe for use on both light and dark painted surfaces.

Compatible model kits: Suitable for 1/144–1/48 scale Convair CV-440 variants from major manufacturers.

Perfect for: German regional aviation collectors, 1970s propeller era enthusiasts, and modelers seeking truly obscure and rare airline liveries.
