Southwest Airlines "Classic Retro" Livery! (LAS - SNA)

[@SSAviation737]

Better than the two later liveries imho. Love it! I miss these aircraft dearly. I think we need a few more MAX retrojets like this in the canyon blue and desert colours.

[@LoveJT8D]

Definitely agree. It’s the unique liveries like these keeping modern airliners interesting these days.

[@SSAviation737]

@@LoveJT8D Yep. I just wish they kept the black nose and white window outlines to keep this more "retro." This looks like a modern version of the desert gold livery and would be a good new livery. As much as I love it, it looks sort of empty without the black nose and white window outlines.

[@thatpilotdylan2024]

even though that was a short flight you had, still getting to ride on one of only 2 southwest 737-700's with that livery is a very special thing. Love the video!

[@LoveJT8D]

Thanks! Yes, they don’t cycle through very often when it comes to hoping it makes a visit at your local airport.

[@DnD_Robb404]

I flew on this airframe once. I heard it’s retired and stored somewhere.

[@LoveJT8D]

Nice! Glad you had a flight on this one. I’ll have to look up it’s status but indeed a shame if it’s retired. Hopefully will have a new life somewhere.

HOW COME THIS SOUTHWEST PLANE IS GOLDEN!?

[@LoveJT8D]

This is a special retro livery. This is what Southwest Planes looked like back in the 80s and 90's.

[@superswagproud7189]

It is the older version of the liveries, it was popular in the 70's through the 90's.

What a cool ride mate. Enjoyed a lot!

[@LoveJT8D]

Chilean Aviation Films Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video. I think the desert is so beautiful to fly over. So many types of mountain formations.

Desert Gold

[@LoveJT8D]

Yep! Wish they had a handful more in this color.

[@donaldsperrazza5817]

i was on that plane once from orlando to buffalo

[@LoveJT8D]

Awesome! Lucky catch for you to get on this one.

[@mckeeboys8929]

Interestingly this is the only -700 still with the tan seats

[@LoveJT8D]

That’s awesome. Goes with the exterior color nicely.

Amazing footage mate. Enjoyed the video :) I am sorry for the late comments. Unfortunately youtube is not notifying me :(

[@LoveJT8D]

Glad you enjoyed the video! No worries, hopefully these airplane videos live on for many years so you can drop by and watch whenever you like :)

Nice

Always sad to leave Vegas

[@LoveJT8D]

PotatoTheVeryFirst Usually bitter sweet to leave there haha.

[@pinoyr1ce684]

What if they make a max 8 in that livery?

[@LoveJT8D]

PotatoTheVeryFirst I think that would be a great idea if it can get flying again.

[@Theonewhoseeks12]

@@LoveJT8D4 years later they did!

[@deltatv3525]

7:13 very rude!

[@LoveJT8D]

Delta TV It comes across that way, but I think it was just some friendly blunt Southwest humor. There really isn’t much time to drink on the short Vegas flights from Socal. A handful of those passengers probably intend to slam and drink down anyway haha.

[@deltatv3525]

LoveJT8D Yes 😂. But sometimes it’s about a 35-50 minute flight, and that gives you to drink it normally until about 15 mins prior to landing or when they do the final pass.

[@LoveJT8D]

Delta TV That’s true and most likely folks are naturally drinking at a slower pace when returning from Vegas 😉

Ah, John Wayne

Colin D Nice little airport 👍
