All dismanteling steps of this 707 filmed in 4K!
D-ABOD was delivered to Lufthansa on April 24, 1960 and was phased out from operations in the end of 1975. The aircraft was then used as a technical trainer for Lufthansa Technik trainees until 1999 and then sold to Hamburg Airport for a symbolic price of one Euro. Hamburg Airport used her for regular firefighting trainings and as a trainer for the German federal police, airport security staff and ground handling workers. Oscar Delta appeared in some movies as well for whose she was painted in several fictional airline liverys.
On February 3, 2021 Hamburg Airport announced that the aircraft will be scrapped due to a lack of money for maintenance. Major aviation museums like Sinsheim or Speyer were contacted if they'd like to save the aircraft but both of them denied as the transportation costs were too high.
Therefore - from June 8 to June 16 - the aircraft was scapped but quite a few parts were preserved and will be auctioned later to aviation enthusiasts.
This airframe (MSN 17720 / LN 115) was one out of just two remaining 707-430's in the entire world. The other one (MSN 17713 / LN 169) is in a pretty bad condition sitting at Aero Beach in Uganda. After being originally delivered to BOAC, she flew for quite a few airlines before she was used as the governmental aircraft for Uganda. Uganda Government phased out the aircraft in October 1983 and since then the airframe is sitting on a beach right next to Entebbe International Airport.
