Southwest Airlines

N609SW

Boeing 737-3H4

Serial number 27929 manufactured 1995

I have waited a long time to get a good picture of this aircraft.

Southwest used to have a B737-200 painted in this color scheme,

and the first time I saw it I thought I want a picture of that airplane!

They have several other aircraft painted in colorful U.S. state schemes.

Lufthansa's A380 gets a Fire Department water cannon salute...

The A380's tail is so tall that the water cannon can't even shoot over it!
