From Every Mountainside… Let Freedom Ring!

Southwest currently operates just over 200 examples of the 737-800, with the type first entering service with the carrier in 2012. This 737-800, N500WR, is 10 years old at the time of posting, being delivered in 2014. In 2021, it became the first Southwest 737-800 to be painted in a special livery. It was painted in the "Freedom One" livery, which depicts the American Flag, to celebrate the carrier's 50th anniversary.
Fun fact: this livery was actually designed with a total of 50 stars and 13 stripes just like the Star-Spangled Banner!

This is my most ambitious livery project so far! This one sort of came out of the blue when I was browsing the internet looking for airline liveries. Anyways, hope you enjoy!

Most of the work done was on the livery, but some minor updates have been made to the aircraft such as re-shaped doors, various landing gear changes and the addition of the satcom and tail skid.
