Boeing 737-7H4

While waiting to fly home, I spotted "Illinois One" pulling into the terminal at McCarran International.

That is a neat plane. Thanks for sharing Robert.

that is a cool looking plane. I miss having mountain around, Florida is flat and starting to get boring.
Nice shots too.

Thanks Jaime and Dozer. I like the paint jobs that Southwest comes up with. I also got two shots of "New Mexico One", one has some bad window reflections from the terminal and the other was a quick shot out of the plane window.

I want to see the New Mexico one.

here's what I'm talking about Florida being flat. i stitched 7 pics I took tonight.

Man, and I thought the SW blue/purple and red planes were ugly!

Good shots.

So... no skiing?

Nice Pano Dozer. It's okay when it's flat, you have more room to shot I agree that the flat can get boring, I love going up to CO to the Rockies to visit my Dad. Now thats some fun shooting.

Here is New Mexico One. Shot out of the window of the airplane when both were pushed out with the tug. New Mexico One had just gotten un-hooked.

No, those are still ugly . I like the unique paint jobs better on the Southwest Airlines fleet.

Thanks Frank.

I have been looking for Illinois One since it was painted with no luck. I have seen all of the others, but have yet to catch Illinois. Nice pic.

Thanks. I have really only got these two. I've never really made an effort to try and get airline shots, but should start trying now that I have a 100-400mm lens. I just don't know if all the uniquely painted ones travel to each hub or only certain regions.

Cool, Bobert I didn't realize that SW had 'personalized' planes

I'm still looking for the one painted as a purple dragon.

Not that I have seen...but there are rumors.
