How the dimensions were calculated
The 747-400 Dreamlifter is 71.68 metres long, 64.44 metres across and 21.54 metres high in the sourced aircraft record. We convert each figure to centimetres, then divide it by 400. Nothing is inferred from a retailer's box photograph.
71.68 m × 100 ÷ 400 = 17.9 cm model length
