Happy 40th Anniversary Southwest Airlines

Post by FlyTexas »

40 years this very day. :) We had a party yesterday in our MX hangars here in Dallas. Lots of music, food, drink (no beer for me...I was working :( ), and Southwest fun. Check out the classic Ford painted in Southwest colors. :lol:

I didn't see Herb but I'm sure he popped by some time. Winglets definitely would improve the looks of the Ford. To be honest Southwest colors don't look very good on that car. :lol:

Indeed :agree:

You'd have thought it would have been in the original livery, but it still wouldn't look right (but wouldn't need winglets) :lol:
