Today a friend and I attended the 737-800 Launch Party at Southwest. Lots of fun. The aircraft (our first 737-800) still has that 'new car smell'. :) I hope you enjoy the pics.

They are lovely when they are delivered... just a shame that they have to let passengers on board to trash them!!!

Great pictures Brian. But..I must ask...what is that strange feature with the wing turning upwards at the end ? What is that called ? :)

:lol: Ain't it the truth. Her first revenue flight is on 11 April, so she'll stay clean for a little while longer. ;)

I think it's called the wing-extension URL placement holder thingy...or something like that. ;)
