Really nice BR. You can see the swirls from the "polishing" ion pic #1. Just cleared the runway in picture #2, huh?

Great shots and beautiful repaint. I love the 757 it just has way to much power for its size. Will the repaint be uploaded to simviation? Great work!

Thanks for replying Grin

The a/c is a 777-200ER and it’s available to download here

I don’t think all the AA planes have the luxury jet thing, I saw almost all the pictures of the AA 777 in airliners.net and I don’t remember of any triple seven with it, just some spirit of American is a special paint.

Riflemen I'm surprised you said its too chrome are you referring to the entire plane or jus the bally???

Thanks everyone for the comments.

Actually its a personal taste thing, but maybe my tired old memory in my head isn't up to the DDR standard.....I seem to remember a bit less sheen on the aluminium skin of those American Airlines A/C which I used to see when I rode my bike to YYZ.....way back when ......gee I am old....I can remember getting onto the apron with my bike to take pics of Viscounts and Vanguards in b/w.

Ace ,

you're right the saying "Luxury Liner" was just under
the stripe at the nose Between the window and the at the top of the fuse.That's one thing I do
remember about American Airlines. Still a great shot.
