"Her name, is Jet Clipper Lambda Generation. Being one of two Boeing 707-700 Intercontinenal conversions ordered by Pan American World Airways in 1985, this is the first time the company has ever endorsed a video game franchise over its 70+ years old history along with another game franchise. Converted from a 707-320B built in 1965, this conversion changed the smoky, low-bypass JT3D engines to smokeless, high bypass CFM56 (same as modern 737 and A320)  to adress the efficiency and pollution issues seen on older 707 models. This beauty was photographed at Albuquerque Int'l Airport in New Mexico after a lenghty journey from Innsbruck, Austria with a stopover in New York. Unlike most of Pan Am's birds, this one didnt received the billboard style livery, instead it retains the 1970's cheatline. This, along with the other conversion, were the last 707s operated by Pan Am at the time when the photograph was taken. " 



After I learned how to change a model's existing texture, I decided to carry over my work to Flight Simulator X and decided to make a fictional livery for the nearly fictional but actually exists Boeing 707-700. For this livery I decided to make a LambdaGeneration themed livery (though still retains mostly Pan Am).  I hope this still counts as "fan creations", cuz I felt ashamed doing this. Probably should've done it using just Half-Life logos instead.

im not a plane person y'know? I prefer normal stuff for normal people like making alien invasion maps for a 26 year old game

Only flies to 2 destinations. Still more legroom than Ryanair though..

Dr. Link Freeman, Ph.D

Hell, it prolly has more room than even modern American, Delta, and United cabins put together. Even the seats were thick as heck. The only issue as this is 1960s airliner was the overhead baggage are kinda smol for modern standards :)
