Good evening from Germany!
Here's another question concerning old Lufthansa 707-models. The GAMA 707 below doesn't have a cheatline that is continued onto the lower part of the aircraft. Also the front door is chopped off. Was the model manufactured this way? Or has someone built a "new" model from available parts? I know that GAMA also made a Pan Am 707 - so could the lower part of my Lufthansa 707 be a part of a scrapped PA 707? I'm curious because I bought this model in a box on which it says: "GAMA Pan American Jet Clipper". ![]() Here's a close-up of a Tipp&Co 720 with a continued cheatline and a full door. ![]() Thanks a lot for your help! Kind regards! Michael |

Despite the apparently mismatched parts, the plane looks like a factory job to me - the upper piece's tabs are nice and clean where they are fitted into the lower fuselage part, and no scratches to show tampering are present.
