Looks to me like a 738. Clearly not an Airbus product.

No its a LUS 319. Look at the tips of the wings, the Airbus insignia.

Yes, LUS 319. Rode that twice last week, from LAX - CMH and back.

Sorry, I was looking at the TW liveried plane in post 105, which is a 738.

Spotted this 738 in AirCal livery at ORD on 5/1/17. Picture was taken from the H/K Admirals' Club.

We're talking about the TW plane.

My hit rate in terms of flying the retrojets is surprisingly high both on US and in the past few years on AA. Must have done a good half dozen of them in the past couple of years alone.

My "favourite" was the TWA 737-800 on CLT-JFK when my fiancee's father, an ex-TWA employee was picking me up from JFK.

I had the Astrojet this morning PBI-CLT, but it was parked in such a way that I couldn't get a picture of it. Looked cool out the jetway window though.

Astrojet?
Changing terminals after arriving at DFW via DART a little while ago.....I saw out the window of the SkyLink a smallish silver AA plane with "Astrojet" livery and tail emblem. Is it a retro livery or vintage plane or what? Gate agent did not really know.

I've seen a plane like that in "retro" livery. It was most likely that one.

It is a normal 737 painted with vintage livery. I had it on my MIA-SKB flight 2 weeks ago...

Love that plane. That and the PSA Smileliner.

Cool. I always like to fly on the specially decorated planes but I am not on one today. Being originally from N.O., I was very excited about the new Louisiana One on Southwest.
