757s with Winglets

Many of them are not very attractive to me, with the exception of the USairways new colors:

Great looking plane.

Which of the American carriers that have them do you enjoy most?

I would have to say my own company but I might be biased about all that. US is surely shapest to me. A close runner up is AA though.

I like the look of NWA's birds with US a close second.

I don't know Tommy, based on your reaction, I thought you would pick this one:

I'm partial to the NWA and Continental versions myself! Plus getting to see two of them last week - N537US and N538Us - two days in a row.

In terms of American carriers I would say I like the way they look on Northwest's 757-200s the most. As for foreign carriers it's a tie between Finnair and Icelandair!

I feel dumb. If I would have read your whole statement I would have noticed you said American carriers.

njgtr,

i'm actually glad you posted that though! I didn't realize how many foreign operators brought 757s in here.

Icelandair is another fav of mine, going along thoselines.

Finnair is another GREAT one whenthey sub in 75s.

Which apparently is going to be a common thing this summer due to the heavy scheduling with their MD-11s!

Matt,
Its because they make aircraft look "Toysish" or kind if like a spaceship or something similar. I just cant see large aircraft with winglets like a learjets and other business jets have.

Senga - you mean to say you don't want to see those 737 long horns on an A380?

LOL

Yes sir that is correct!
I think it would messup a impressive ring profile.
Oh the horror
