1. Nationair B777-200ER

Brit wanted to see some Nationair... guess this is what I have to show for it.

-----------------

The 777-200ER has remained a staple aircraft for Nationair's long-haul operations, due to its specialty in cargo capacity and the superb passenger experience offered to passengers. Nationair's first 777-200ERs actually come from Midwest: originally, their purpose was to fly nonstop to Asia in the late 1990's from Minneapolis after the PDX scissor hub closed. In 2007, just after the merger between Midwest and Nationair, brand-new 77E's with higher-powered GE90s and MTOWs were delivered, and are now commonly seen on Asian and Latin American routes. Nationair 777-200ERs come in two configurations: a domestic (42 NationalFirst, 60 Main Cabin Select, and 256 Main Cabin) configuration and an international one (36 NationalONE, 32 NationalPremier, 56 Main Cabin Select, and 164 Main Cabin), recently refreshed such that both sport a 10-abreast 3-4-3 cabin in Main Cabin and Main Cabin Select.
This example, N729MD, is part of the early-batch group noted by the 'MD' registration: delivered in 1998 to Midwest Airlines, she was based in MSP, after which she was switched in 2009 to the Philadelphia base in favor of the PHL-LHR and PHL-AMS route.



    That date gap though. 2018-2019.

     

    This is pretty nice.

     

    I would like to point out the Boeing 777 logo and preferlably put it on the back side more. (but that's just my preference. :P)

    Thanks!

     

    I did the exact opposite of what you suggested: I moved it forwards (directly behind door L3, aligned with the windows).

    it's okay

    it's okay

    it’s good enough to be american based

    I like the metallic effect on the tail

    Reminds me too much of American and that reminds me too much of an absolutely horrible experience on one of their 772s earlier today...

    Is it the eagle that did it in for ya?

    This is good, excited for the other stuff too

    Yeah the eagle looks similar to their old logo, but like...in a good way. I didn't mean the livery was bad or anything, I actually quite like it. Regarding that 'experience' with AA, I'm currently in the process of coordinating with the airline and DOT, and considering litigation, so I won't really go into that.
