Continental Colors

Of all the current liveries of the (US) domestic carriers, I think Continental's is my favorite. Here are some shots of COA planes I took a couple weeks ago. This is my first venture into transport category aircraft, I usually shoot GA and military, let me know what you think.

Image
The old 737-200 (Tin Mouse) with the new COA colors. Not particularly fond of the model for towers in the background here. Most of the towers I see dotting the country are much thinner than the ones modeled in FSX.


Image
I love the detail of the tail on this livery. The access panels and grease around the hinge give the plane a nice "well used" look. LAX looks a little bit empty though. I'd turned off the traffic for another project and forgot to turn it back on again.


Image
Positive rate of climb - Gear Up. The lack of traffic makes this look like The Langoliers. Kinda creepin' me out.


Image
757-200 (POSKY) out of Tampa.


Image
POSKY always make a good plane. The detail is amazing.

Dirty for landing.

Very nice!  8-) Don't you just love the tails on these things? I had the same Continental craze a few days ago and I ended up downloading the POSKY 737-900ER and the 767-200ER in the Continental livery. Though the 767 doesn't seem to work in FSX...
