    Bye Bye 901

    Unfortuneately ship 901 otherwise known as the Arizona 757 has flown the coupe for the last time from PHX to one of USAirways respray facilities. 10 hours ago she went into the hanger in Arizona colors for the last time.

    Ryan, apparently no one cares about this as much as you and I. I posted on A.net (I'm sure you saw) yesterday and only got one reply now it's buried at the bottom of like page 2.

    It really sad to see those special schemes go away, especially since they are being replaced with "half-schemes". I'm all for a special livery/paint job, but if you are going to do it, do the whole aircraft. Don't give me the Euro-white in front, and special paint ass-end of the aircraft. It looks poorly thought out, like they didn't buy enough paint.

    She was parked next to my gate at LAX on October 28th. I have enough pictures of her so she can be repainted. The only one that I would love to get better shot is "Working Together" bird.
