Good morning,

Does anyone know what Font was used for Northwest Orient? I am trying to recreate it, but the word 'Northwest' will be the most difficult. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Several types of font have been used for Northwest Orient.
Give us a screen showing the plane?

I think it should no be such a problem to find what you are looking for.

I just looked on the internet.

I assume the problem with NORTWEST  is mainly a problem with the character S.
The other character are close to fonts we all have and can be easily used with a tiny bit of editing.

The S is something special.
There are some pictures showing cards and labels on the internet.
Their quality is low.

What did I do.

I took a picture and enlarged in Paintshop to a huge size.

Then I selected the S by hand and made a black copy.
Then I finetuned the font a bit and now I have a very big S.

Downscaled it will do perfectly on a repaint.

Herwith some examples  ( made in just ten minutes , spending a bit more time quality will profit )
