With the NW scheme rapidly becoming history as Delta re-branding moves on a pace thought it might be interesting to record some NW colours and machines.

Does anyone have shots of NW "heavies" in Europe?

Prophetic line up of tails shot at Phoenix.



Next 2 shot at Grand Rapids, Michigan.



DC-9 N9335



CRJ-440 N8611A

Thanks for sharing those Dave, it was always impressive to see a line of NW 10s at Schipol!

I'd forgot about this next "hybrid", shot at Dusseldorf.

I wonder in these days if global financial concerns, how much does it cost an airline to repaint aircraft either singly or by the fleet ? some instances to me just seem a total waste of money and time which could be better spent I am sure.

Thanks to Samba for forwarding this cracking shot of Boeing 707 N360US, taken at Haneda in 1964.
