Doesn't the WL usually mean 'winglets'?

If so, where are they?

It's just a sample. The winglets will be added for the final production model.

Since Herpa is making this one (and the Conti bird that came out in December), does that mean GJ won't make one?

I'd like the Conti 752 WL (and this bird for that matter) but without that "junk in the trunk" as one forum member so lovingly put it a while back.

I have the Continental that they made and it is stunning! I do not have a Gemini Jets 757-200 with the winglets so I don't know how to compare.

I hope when Gemini makes this one they will use a different registration than Herpa.

Anyone have any detailed pics of this Herpa Continental 757-200 with winglets? Would be nice to see on here.
