737

[PRB]

Shot this kodak today. Some late model 737 I would guess. The paint doesn't look like any airline I recognize. Maybe private. My house is close enough to KSTL, and on the line of approach to the east/west runways, that I get airliners flying over the house at 7000-10000 ft. all day every day, but this guy was a lot lower, and going the opposite way. Still, it seems like I've seen this paint somewhere, maybe even here...

Not positive but looks private.

I believe I've seen that BBJ up here at MSP once or twice.

Here's a pic I found of the same aircraft on a plane-spotting site. https://airlinersgallery.smugmug.com/keyword/boeing%20bbj/i-SMq8n5J/A

There is a repaint for this jet at Avsim for the PMDG 737NG.

Just do a search for "N835BA"

That's it! Must be Boeing Big Shots in town...

[n4gix]

That 737-7BC is based at KGYY (Gary-Chicago International Airport*) at the Boeing Hangar, along with three Challenger's. The latter fly in/out between KGYY and KBFI every Monday through Saturday, ferrying corporate suits, engineers, and other VIPs back and forth.

Every morning one leaves from KBFI and another from KGYY. Late afternoon finds them flying the reciprocal course.

*Note: yes, the official name for KGYY is rather pretentious! :biggrin-new:
