Southwest rolled out their new livery back in 2014 and it has grown on me ever since. I think, if implemented, this livery would open up the opportunity to fly new routes flown by this aircraft, and will bring in more consumers to the game, especially U.S. buyers, as this is a common aircraft here.
I believe the only birds that don’t have the scimitar winglets are new ones for testing prior to delivery with the correct split winglets. I don’t think it would be worth adding if they don’t see revenue service per my knowledge.
I think they should still add the livery because of how many votes it has and how flying the old one doesn’t feel realistic because very few still have the old one. The winglets are such a minor difference and I don’t think is a valid reason to not add such a needed livery. Delta and United 737s have splits and those liveries are there.
Ok but if you are not taking them away from the sim. (Which I don’t want to happen.) having Delta and United aircraft without splits isn’t any more realistic than southwest without them. What annoys me honestly is how there are 5 frontier liveries for some reason but liveries with 35 votes is ignored.
I think you’re missing the point here, those liveries were accurate when they were made. The difference now is that the new colors have split winglets already, making it incorrect from the beginning and we’d get topic after topic about it being wrong.
I did the Frontier liveries because I work for them, and had access to the high quality materials needed to make them
That may be your opinion, however the Frontiers were made and it’s not impacting wether other liveries are or are not added. I do not want to intentionally make inaccurate airplanes because even though some people say it’s ok, MANY others will complain.
