Okay, I'll start the New Year's Eve festivities with this....
New converted model, CPAI Lockheed L-188 Electra II.
New airline, Midway Airlines in all regards (includes main-line, Express, Connection, and Metrolink) in both incarnations.
Possibly more to follow later today, for sure tomorrow, another big U.S. carrier.
Also, some clean-up stuff for COA/PAA for a couple of little things I missed on the first pass.
MDW Group screenshots to follow, everything is already live on the website.

Thank you!!! The 737-800 and 757's were the the part of your AAL fleet needed for the early 2000's plans, I even started to think about making them at some point with some FSPX version of the 767's haha |

There are some random pink and yellow-ribbon specialty liveries in the early-to-mid 2000s, those are the ones I may get around to eventually.
I've got about another week of free paint time, then I will slam the door shut and just trickle them out for the spring. I have one or two more fleets in the works at this time.
It's important to me to get unified (one-painter) fleets done whenever possible. There are some tremendous repaints from very talented repainters out there, but sometimes not everybody does all of the needed painting for one fleet, and to collect all of the repaints is sometimes a non-color matched mishmash. No disrespect to anybody's fine work in the past, I just like consistency in my slightly OCD world, lol.

The secret is out but I've planned on making some early-mid 2000's DAL 737-800's, 757's and 767/777's on the FSPX model color-matched to your FAIB 767's and Delta Connection CRJ's. |

I was just getting photos today for DAL... |

The only thing missing is the fleet of Aeromexico, Mexicana, Taesa, Aviacsa and other Mexican airlines, I like the work Mike does! I admire what he does and he is appreciated.
