Hello everybody!

I got my airbrush tuesday, and decided to practice on this old 737-200! I converted the 737-200 into a 737-200 combi, with aft end for cargo (thus no windows), and did it up in british airways markings -_-  It is supposed to be used in africa for smaller destinations, had the british empire excisted today :P  

Only the white is done by airbrush, all other colours are done by brush B)

Very good job, triple7. Airliners painting is a delicate and difficult task

Cool, I'd never seen BA livery on a 737 before.

Is this cargo/passenger combi your own concept or do they really make such an aircraft?

Looks great!   ;)

Nice work 777!  Subtle, wouldn't have realised the missing windows if you hadn't mentioned it.

Here you go Baz, feast your eyes!  BA 737's a plenty on Airliners.net, in every livery you can imagine:

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I beleive alaska airlines had a single combi that was retired last month, however it had windows throughout the plane...
FAA (Federal aviation administration) doesnt allow combis anymore, so they will all disappear in a while (KLM has 747 combis though).

Other than that, theres 737 freighter converstions.

:unsure:  
And why FAA doesn't allow combis anymore (poor Volskwagen  :rolleyes: ) ?

Brilliant, this model looks very, very good  :wub:   :cheers:  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Apparently, because of the danger of fire in the cargo, inside the passenger cabin... :blink:  Cant see why it would be safer to just carry it underneath instead :blink:

Perhaps more dangerous cargoes where carried in combis than in normal airliners?
