Featured Replies

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

 

Here is super gorgeous and beautiful Pacific Western Boeing 737-200 from PABA Barter Island LRRS Airport also known as Barter Island Airport or Kaktovik Airport located near the city of Kaktovik on Barter Island in the North Slope Borough of Alaska to PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport located 4 nautical miles southwest of downtown Anchorage.

 

Finished loading with tourists and luggage in the Barter island which is famous as tourist place for large population of polar bears

Cool!

Very nice. I always liked this livery. Would love to see it on the Captain Sim model some day.

Great series and it really takes me back...I flew on one of these back in 1980 from Vancouver Island (Gold River I think to CYVR).

 

I shot a stored bird in this same livery at the Edmonton Aviation Museum (they flew it in with one hour left on the air frame).

I know fellow AVSIM member Pitts has some fantastic shots of the inside of her.
