There have been 706 German releases in 400 scale, but of those 482 have been Lufthansa (or one of its subsidiaries) and 76 Condor. That means the rich German airline scene isn't as well represented as it might be. In my collection the non-Condor German Charter airlines have their own half shelf in a Kallax Unit. Their number has just been bolstered by my 50th NG Models L-1011 Tristar - the series 500 D-AERV made by NG all the way back in 2020. The model wears a short term livery adopted after acquisition from United where she'd been N511PA (obviously a former Pan Am frame). Oddly NG never made a standard colours LTU series 500. I picked up most NG Tristars at the point of release but this one being a little obscure I ignored at the time. Nowadays the lack of NG L-1011s leaves me looking for the odd one I didn't buy. This one was an eBay purchase for £25.
