Let's see how observant you all are ;D I recieved the following selection of early NORTHWEST ORIENT AIRLINES B707 textures from John KEANE a few days ago .... but .... couldn't get them prepared in time for our most recent website update Admmittedly some of the differences between these livery versions are very minor .... but .... let's see if you can spot them all. You should enjoy playing this game Bob ! NORTHWEST ORIENT AIRLINES B707-320B SCD & -320B LIVERIES 1963-681963 B707-320B ADVC SCD 1965 B707-320B ADVC SCD Both of the above aircraft were among 4 unique B707-320B ADVC SCD aircraft built for NORTHWEST AIRLINES. This version first flew on May 15th 1963. They featured forward fuselage maindeck cargo doors promoting convertible PAX/freight or "COMBI" operation but lacked the strengthed floor of the B707-320C which first flew 3 months earlier. 1968 B707-320B ADVC NORTHWEST ORIENT AIRLINES B707-320C "COMBI" & -320C LIVERIES 1963-681963 B707-320C "COMBI" At least 1 of NORTHWEST AIRLINES B707-320C's were operated as a "COMBI" aircraft with a mixed PAX/freight configuration .... as represented above. 1967 B707-320C1968 B707-320CThese textures will form "PART 2" of our in-depth inventory of NORTHWEST ORIENT AIRLINES B707 & B720 inventory from the 1960's .... and will most definitiely feature among new stuff already being planned for the next website update. Many thanks for all of these John .... they look magnificent ! Mark C AKL/NZ

Whilst the B707-320B ADVC-SCD & B707-320C do obviously definitiely feature different cabin window configurations, the differences between each aircraft/livery are actually quite a bit more subtle that that .... and not at all in respect of the engines ;D
Have another try Bob ! ;D
I'll spill the beans only if you're unable to spot what's different !

Hi Mark,
Difference I see is that the cheat paint extends further into the nose radome, (blue and red ), its rounds completely around nose area on the 1963 - 1965, while on the 1967 - 1968 it's shorten and stops at the point where the radome cover is. Also, the 1963 scheme states below pax window " Northwest Orient Airlines " while after 1965, they added " Fanjet " to the original " Northwest Orient Airlines " title below the pax windows. Great scheme by the way.

Hi Mark! The 1963 version doesn't have a black line around the doors or emergency exits. Am I right? ATB Ricardo

"RAVILIMAR" has just nailed one of the more important details that differentiates the1963 liveries from the later versions. Of course this was a period prior to doors and wing exits being hilighted by painted outlines from around the mid 1960's.
YES ! .... you're right in what you've spotted too "EAGLE526".
In fact well spotted both of you .... but .... there's still more ! ;D

The 1963 version doesn't have the painted arrows on the wings and the C versions have a third emergency window each side of the fuselage just after the wings. And I can't see anything else...Not with my eyesight!

Hi Mark,
On the 1963 - 1965 SCD all forward windows (right side )are plugged, on the 1963 combi all windows plugged except the first 3 aft of the front door. This is getting interesting.
