Nice titles layout but what is that garbage on the tail? I suppose an "S"
Another airline livery thrown onto obscurity.

Looks good to me. I like the black at the end of the fuselage.

It's a tennis shoe

Same 'ol thing as usual, all white with a painted rear end but at least it isn't blue this time. Congratulations I guess..

Message board post beat us to it. Same pic, but here's the article link...

:arrow: PHOTO: Southern Air Unveils New Paint Scheme (http://nycaviation.com/2010/03/16/southern-air-unveils-new-paint-scheme/)

Cargo charter airline Southern Air introduced a new paint scheme on one of their Boeing 747-300s, which was caught at Miami International Airport by Luimer Cordero.

Well, it's something new to shoot once and never give a **** about again.

[jerslice]

I'd like to catch this puppy one day.

It will look sharp on the 777's they are getting. I like it. And I like it even more on the 743

[SengaB]

It came in last night at 2:20am into JFK...parked over at KAL Cargo. I didn't bother to risk a suicide shot of it. It wasn't worth the risk with all the ground crew close to the fence.

I like that scheme. I also like the fact that its on one of my fav old Polar Air a/c. N354MC. Been trying to get that a/c since I found out SA had it. Sadly havent seen it at JFK but now it wil be easier to find :borat:

[hiss srq]

Someone else called it a sneaker before. I guess I can see it now. Kinda looks like a New Balance with Pratts but I like it still.

[NLovis]

Funny. 743's never had pratts on them. that isnt a 300.

[hiss srq]

Hmm........... I'm just going to sigh.... Actually, no I cannot hold back anymore. WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR INFORMATION!? This is a 747-300. Look at the photo! 743's were defineately made with Pratt's. I can think of at least two flagship carriers in the world who in fact flew them with Pratts. Swissair, Korean and just for ****s and giggiles South African. Varig flew the 743 with the CF6 and a small number of others. Most carriers actually opted for the JT8 to maintain commonality. Please check facts prior to makeing baseless statements, assumptions and judgements.

I have shot this frame several times over the years (cn 24194). Starting with the
Korean Air Cargo HL7470 (the KAL 300s came back in for an extremely short time into JFK)
Nlovis the reg you refer to N354MC is cn 23394 a different one. It flew for Atlas Air.

cn 24194
Korean Air Cargo HL7470
Cargo 360 N301JD

Dude i'm 20. I've never seen many 300's and never saw a 300 with pratts. My info is uaually wrong and we all know it. I dont shy away though. I'm allowed to put my thoughts and info down if I desire to just like everybody else on this site.
Senga I know ehich one i'm talking about. I shot 354 in its Atlas days. Hell i've been on 354 before. According to what I have read SA has 354 currently.

[hiss srq]

If you know your information is wrong than why bother to put it up here for the world to point out? Just saying..... You make statements that are baseless on things that are easily verifyable via google, anet, this site or someones statement three posts above. Do yourself a favor and do research or put some credit behind you before you make statements. I've never even flown on Alaska before so would it make sense for me to say..... Alaska's service is terrible and their 737-400's are not well maintained? Probably not..... Just sayin'......

[SengaB]

Nlovis,
Yes it does fly for SOO now. However, you were talking about two different frames.
N789SA vs N749SA.

N354MC N789SA cn 23394 is still white.

Maybe I miss understood what you meant?

Either i messed up or something was wrong. I'll have to look into it.

Possibly Asics but I'm pretty sure might be the Reebok stripes, old school :mrgreen:

[NLovis]

Its alot better then all white thats for sure. The font they picked looks good with that as well.
