I don't know why, but for some reason I havent been looking foward to all of Southwest's 737-700s being fitted with winglets.  However, as the transition is occuring before our eyes, they are starting to grow on me.  So I decided to fly home to SJC from RNO on one.   ;D

Holding short, waiting for a fellow SWA flight to get outta my way!

Now on approach into SJC.

Question: Do you ever fly other airlines than SWA on your sim?  ;D

I felt the same way regarding the winglets, but I guess you get used to them  :)

Beautiful shots! I seem to be quite fond of WN, especially their aircrafts with the dihedrals. Keep the shots coming!

I've got an extensive British Airways fleet, but I also have a 737-700 in SouthWest Canyon Blue (no winglets) tha I like to take out once in a while! Great colour scheme.
