It looks like they took an AirTran photo and changed the green color to blue, and posted their logo on the tail. The curious thing is that 737's don't fly into the airfield, just EMB-145, CR-200, Boeing 717 and Airbuses.

Apologies for highjacking the thread.

Interesting, thanks.

I've got a couple of friends in the model train world that want to model the fuselage transport trains, but can't find suitable models to use. You might have some ready-made customers with this one!

Really ? Sounds cool to make fuselage transporting model trains. I hope my model are suitable for what they need. Thanks for the info

Thank you sargaputra pesawatholic for you original design. Since I mentioned it earlier in this thread, here is my 1/100 scale 737 that I made up for the local airport administration.

Absolutely awesome model. The page detailing its construction is very informative. I will use that for making my own with sketchup. Excellent tutorial. Excellent model.
