HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Boeing 737-800 with the special livery “Alaska Airlines – Honoring Those Who Serve,” registered as N570AS, is a testament to Alaska Airlines’ deep respect and gratitude for the men and women who have served in the U.S. military. This aircraft serves as a flying tribute, adorned with a striking design featuring patriotic colors and symbols, including stars and stripes. It is a symbol of the airline’s commitment to recognizing the sacrifices and contributions made by these brave individuals.
In the early 1990s, Boeing worked on designing an aircraft that would replace older models of its popular Boeing 737 jetliner. In June 1983, Boeing launched the 737-X program after having received an order from Southwest Airlines for 63 aircraft. This resulted in the development of the 737 Next Generation (737NG or 737 Next Gen) aircraft and would go on to include four different variants: the -600, -700, -800 and -900. The Boeing Next Generation 737s incorporate a larger wing, more powerful engines and can fly longer range routes with higher payloads than the earlier 737 models. The Boeing 737-700 was the first variant to enter production, with the first delivery having been made to Southwest Airlines in December 1997. Thereafter, in September 1994, the first Boeing 737-800 was delivered to Hapag-Lloyd, which is a longer version of the Boeing 737-700, with seating for up to 189 passengers. Then, in 1988, SAS became the first airline to take delivery of the Boeing 737-600, which is the smallest Boeing 737 in the Next Generation family, with seating for 110 to 132 passengers. The last aircraft in the Next Generation family, the Boeing 737-900, which is the Longest 737NG, was launched in November 1997, with Alaska Airlines having placed the first order. Boeing also subsequently introduced its Boeing 737-900ER, which offers greater range with a higher payload capacity than the Boeing 737-900. Today many of the Next Generation 737s incorporate blended winglets, which help to increase lift, reduce drag, and helps to reduce fuel consumption and engine wear. A split scimitar winglet featuring a distinctive curve was also released to further reduce energy loss. Recognized as Boeing’s most successful airliner program to date, the 737NG program has been superseded by the improved 737 Max family of aircraft.
Since its introduction into the Alaska Airlines fleet, N570AS has been an ambassador in the skies, spreading awareness and appreciation for the service of military personnel and veterans. It has transported countless passengers to their destinations, all while carrying with it the powerful message of honoring those who have dedicated their lives to serving their country. The aircraft’s distinctive livery has made it a recognizable and iconic presence in the skies, capturing the attention and admiration of travelers and aviation enthusiasts alike.
This finely detailed 1:200 scale model captures the essence of the aircraft, from its unique livery to the precision in its design. For those who appreciate the significance of this tribute and the sacrifices made by military personnel, this model is a meaningful addition to any collection. Display it with pride, and let it serve as a reminder of the dedication and service of those who have bravely served in the U.S. military.
