Western Pacific Airlines - B737s

[Sierra Tango]

During their heyday Western Pacific Airlines had a variety of companies advertise on their B737s. I was able to photograph several of these but I didn't capture all of them. And, several of the shots I do have are of poor quality, but, they are the only ones I have. All taken at DFW by me.

 

Photographed very late in the afternoon during December of 1995 is N301AU taxiing north on Taxiway G.

 

Next is a poor scan of N945WP taxiing south in the Southwest Hold Pad heading for runway 36R for departure on June 7, 1996. This aircraft had a split paint scheme of a red fuselage on the starboard side and blue on the port side.

 

Port side of N945WP photographed on the same day taxiing off the Terminal B ramp.

 

N952WP photographed taxiing west bound to runway 18L for departure in February of 1996.

 

In July of 1996 N950WP was photographed taxiing around the Terminal B ramp.

 

Another casino themed plane is N956WP photographed about to be pushed back from the gate at Terminal B in March of 1997.

 

N948WP taxiing off the Terminal B ramp in June of 1996.

 

Kinda plain when compared to the other WP jets. N960WP is about to start taxiing from the Terminal B ramp in June of 1996.

 

N961WP taxiing out for departure in March of 1996.

 

N946WP taxiing in to the ramp at Terminal B in March of 1996.

 

N948WP during take-off roll on runway 18L in June of 1997.

 

Photographed in March of 1996 is N962WP on the Terminal B ramp.

 

N962WP, again.

 

Last for now. N375TA photographed at Terminal B.

 

I hope you enjoy these.

Lovely photo's as always,only one missing that really stands out is 'The Simpsons'....

[Sierra Tango]

I think I posted a couple of shots of the Simpsons B737 earlier. I may be wrong! Here's one shot of that jet and three other shots of other Western Pacific jets for your viewing pleasure.

 

N949WP exiting the Terminal B ramp.

 

N962WP about to taxi off the ramp for departure in June of 1997. Apologies for the poor quality scan.

 

The other side of the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame jet. Another poor quality scan I apologize for.

 

Last one. Photographed in December of 1997 is N951WP taxiing out for departure.

 

Hope you enjoy these.
