Instead of a single plane that'll be stripped of that scheme in 6 months, how about a nice normal mustard 733, that was like half the fleet for 20 years? That's about 1000x more important to building a SW fleet.

And what will your wives and girlfriends say about having this particular craft if it is ever produced? certainly do not want to cause some jealousy there would we? Will they cause you to "go underground" to continue collecting as they will want to know what is in each "goodie box" you receive.

Is that a respectable sports journal or is it like the 'Sunday Sport' or the 'Daily Star' in this country, newspapers that men buy to look at the err ...sport and nothing at all to do with the T*ts!

The same thing they said when you acquired the two Sky Europe 737s with European supermodels on them.

I was about to bite your head off David but ran a database check of GJ Southwest releases and sure as fricken' **** the only -300 released is California One. Say it ain't so!

Regardless, anything Southwest - SI or not.

I think Herpa did one in 1:500?
Shaback in 1:600?

Thanks. Looking at the picture on the plane, I was thinking that it was one of these downmarket tabloid type publications, like the Daily sport. A newspaper only ever bought to look at the semi naked ladies inside it's covers!

Any Southwest aircraft would be great for fleet building. By the way SI One will only be around for two months then back to her regular livery.

Ya, every once in a while they have a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition. The other months it is sports. Its great to incorporate sports and beautiful women. Hopefully Gemini makes this!

To go with that Playboy model!


From what I've seen the Daily sport doesn't even have much sport in it, it's just soft porn all the way!

SI is a very reputable weekly sports magazine in North America. Except annual SI swim suite edition, regular editions have very good stories behind the games.

BTW, I want the model as well~~

Do you think over the next six months that the bikini will go first or will a strong head wind blow it off
