Two more additions to the Friendly Skies in the form Saul Bass-livery 737s: N317UA as seen around 1987 with small titles and the cheatline higher on the fuselage: N335UA as seen around 1993 with large titles and the cheatline lowered:

Thanks everyone! Here are some relatively recent charter 737s; I spend a fair amount of time in and around Wendover, Utah, where these are pretty common sights bringing people to gamble just over the state line in Nevada: Xtra Airways 737-4Y0 N688XA, 2017: Swift Air 737-401 N804TJ, 2017:

I do occasionally! It turned out that my last required college credit was just a half-semester class, and now that it's over I basically have nothing important to do until the middle of May, which is how I've had the time to crank these out so quickly. Thanks for the compliments!

Thanks guys! And thanks as always Mark for the awesome inflight previews And now for the next project...have you ever seen the light (apologies to The Killers for stealing their line)? Western Pacific 737-3Q8 N955WP, 1997 On the other side, the showgirl extends onto the rear fuselage, and while it doesn't quite line up all the way, I think I've gotten it about as close as I feasibly can.

And now here's a set of special silver Southwest Seven-threes: Southwest's Silver One N629SW as it appeared upon delivery in 1996. Initially it even had a custom cabin with cherry red seats and specific 25th anniversary service items. Several years later, it received a revision to the livery with fairly shiny silver paint and the stripes now painted dark red. Finally, it was repainted again with a much duller coat of silver paint and once again featured white stripes. In early 2009, it got winglets, and later that year it was repainted in the standard Southwest livery with the decal on the nose.

Looks like the HJG-flightline will be even richer with those Southern Silverarrows (nice silver finsish on those classic 737s!).
