Siam Airways 1970s, Boeing 747-300M

Siam Airways is a major Thai airline, operating both regional and long-haul services from its Bangkok hub.

When it was created in the early sixties, with the assistance of various European airlines looking for a reliable partner in the region, Siam only leased aircrafts from the said airlines to fly domestic and regional routes. But the seventies saw the expansion of the airline, and the reception of its first long-haul aircrafts, including the venerable Boeing 747, along with a new livery, adorning the famous sala window decoration.

The 747-300 (passenger and combo versions) had a successful career with Siam, flying mainly to the airline's European and Australasian port of calls.



    Uuuuhhhh I like it!  :wub:

    Keul! ^_^

    This is great!

    Very good design with excellent combination of colours.

    OMG. I just saw what you did with the windows and I am in awe. Outstanding work!

    I'm kind of missing some more symbols, but overall this is great, keep it up, proud of you.

    :o :wub:

    Fully agreed, to tell you the truth, I didn't have a logo as I didn't want a lotus or an elephant, so I lazily pasted the cheatline on the tail and it kinda worked.
    The windows are 100/100 stolen from Air India though.
    Which brings me Oggey, what is the symbol you used on your own Siam, it looks like a sideways temple roof?

    WOW!

    If you mean this, it's essentially just a Thai ripoff. Hand-drawn lotus thing slapped on a tail :P
