From: DOWNGRADE COMPLETE: Thanks Gary. Thanks SWAPA.
Hopefully this is even more motivation to replace those tired old jets with leased NGs off the used market. However, I doubt the 78 -300s that were reskinned are going anywhere soon.

Question from a non SWA guy..
Do the SWA jets have full on Nav displays eg...
Magenta line stuff or is it still glass displays
of round dials?
I recall long ago in one your jump seats
It looked a bit different from what I had seen
in other 737's
Thanks.

All of the "classics" have steam gauges in them.
