Hi guys, While I am busy working on a new set of liveries for the SAA 707s, some of my 737-200 repaints have taken the back seat for the time being. But since this one is so close to being finished I thought I had to preview it, so here it is! I am talking about the Ryanair Hertz logo jet of course! Had my eye on this one for a while and decided to she what I could do. Not a 100% happy with certain things, but getting there. I have also painted the engine textures with a "patched-up" look due to having different colour engine covers on. The wings and horizontal stabiliser had to be painted too, still have to tweak it a bit here and there. It took a lot of adjusting to get the logo to fit where it is supposed to and line up as closely as possible with the doors, hatches and so on. This will get released along with some of my still unreleased updated textures and a few other new ones... BTW, will be previewing some 707s soon in the HJG Previews Section. Comments and suggestions most welcome!! All the best, Philip.

As usual stunning My favourite aircraft to fly around in is the 737-200. Is it the Kittyhawk one?? (my personal favourite)

Hey Tony,
I am glad you like her. Yep, she's painted on Erick's model.
Best regards,
Philip.

Philip, I love your work on the Kittyhawk 737-200. I don't suppose you'd want to consider a request for something that just isn't out there? A Dragonair 737-200, like this: www.airliners.net/open.file/0176305/L/Regards, Jim

I only fly the 732 with Philip's paints. USAir, Metrojet, Boeing House and SAA. And soon this one as well!
But I'm particularly looking forward to the SAA 707s. Thanks Philip.
Ian

Nice repaint! I flew on that aircraft once from Dublin - Blackpool, glad I got to appreciate some form of old jet (albeit a 737) before they were retired

Hi Jim, Ian and Elliott,
Thank you for your kind words. Still have a few things to do on this livery before I release it, and there are a few others too along with updates for some of the previously released liveries. But my main focus now is the SAA 707s.
Jim: That is quite a nice looking livery, I'll keep it in mind and see if I can paint it up.
JP: LOL, I know what you mean. As long as there is happiness, that's good. They say it is going to be 38 in CT today and just north of us more in land 41! And of course what would this heat be without fires springing up and there? Other than the heat, things are going on as usual. Busy at work and just generally trying to make the best of everyday's issues.
Best regards,
Philip.
