PMDG. Why No AA Livery?

[CFIJose 5,485]

An excellent release out the box, however I was surprised to see that there's no AA livery available on release.

My nephew flies a 737 for AA and I'm going need one ASAP. I want to impress him when he comes to visit me. 😀

I would think it wiont be long before Flightsim.to has them up.

I don't think AA currently has any -700 series so maybe that's why?

Maybe @Steve Dra will hook you up if he has enough bandwidth to knock this out? 🙂

This is exactly why.

AA only flies the 800.

I knew someone would catch this. BTW, he flies the Max.

They already created Manila & Philippine liveries.

Because AA never flew the 700!!  They only fly the 800 and the MAX.

The author here says he is planning on making an AA livery -- read his notes on the .to page:

Likely because AA doesn't fly the -700... only the -800 and -MAX8.

There are repaints in American Airlines livery for just about every airplane for any sim out there. What does licensing have to do with it?

It has nothing to do with licensing. They didn't make it because AA doesn't fly the -700.

In the how to install liveries, it's clear as well that there are some liveries that no longer exist that were added for members of the PMDG team.

But no AA? LOL

It has nothing to do with licensing. It's BS.
