Another retro QF 737

Not a big fan of the "Retro Roo II" title on the nose. True to form it should have a "City of ...." with the coat of arms. Like in Pauls pic post above.

The other issue is that both retro jet 737s, (and the Longreach and Travolta 707-138Bs for that matter), have a grey underside as opposed to the original NM. While I understand the rational behind this, (corrosion protection of the metal surface), it does detract a bit from the authenticity of the respective portrayed colour schemes. But hey.....who the hell am I kidding, I LOVE both of the retro jets

PS: On Retro Roo 2, the small "Qantas" titles should be above doors Left 1 and Left 2.....not on them. The original 707 rationale being that the word "Qantas" was visible to the passengers while boarding the aircraft through both those doors, (bearing in mind that this was the pre-aerobridge era).

I hear that the NMF underneath is a no go from Boeing due to EPA regs in the States. Sounds legit
