I have been on America West's "Arizona Cardinals" 757, and Air New Zealand's "Star Alliance" A320. Despite all my flying, I think those are the only special schemes I have been on.

Kitty Hawk SWA N448WN just a sitkcer on the plane, that was it.

I was on whatever scheme G-BNLN was wearing on April4, 2003.

Some BA tail scheme, I forget what its called.

I've flown on AWA's Phoenix Suns, Nevada Plane, TWA’s St. Louis Rams 727 and the hybrid TWA/AA MD-80, if you want to call that a special plane. It’s more of a disgrace to me but oh well.

I flew N679AN AA 757 Retrojet from LGA-MIA and N729CA Comair CRJ Cincinnati Jet hub CVG-IND.

Finding info on the AA retrojet when I got back home is kinda what got me into this crazy ass hobby back in 2000.

I've been on Delta Connection CRJ-700 N740EV painted in 25th Anniversary colors. It says "Silver and Soaring" on the fuselage. Also I was on a special 'titles' Ryanair 737-800 EI-CSZ "Arrivederci Alitalia!"

Tom, now that you mentioned it I do recall flying the TWA 727 Rams plane too I believe.

If you flew the Phoenix Suns you also flew a 737-100, as did I because I also flew the Phoenix Suns jet as well, STL-PHX.

Alex the Phoenix Suns last plane for AWA was a 757-200 not a 737-100

Oh, I never knew there was one in a 757, interesting.

the one I flew was on the 737-100.

lucky tho, 757 alot better then a cramped 737-100.

That's awesome! I remember seeing that thing around PHX when I was younger, but I never had the opportunity to fly on it.

I cannot 100% confirm but It is extremly likely because way back when I flew America West to PHX they were operating 737-200 and one sole 737-100, and I distinctly remember flying into PHX at night, and the only night flight STL-PHX was the 737-100. So based on those facts I would like to say it was the 737-100. Unfortunatly my father threw away the Boarding Pass and Airline Tickets, I am curious as to what we flew back home because it seemed larger, Airbus or 757 perhaps?
