SOUTHWEST_737-700_N711HK_LAS_0207_JP_small.jpgThis 737 is specially registered -HK for Herb Kelleher, now retired chairman of Southwest who was extremely successful and popular. While it's a bit hard to see from the angle I shot the airplane, the paint scheme on this 737 is different than other Southwest 737s as this one is much darker/shinier in order to reflect its significance to the company (not to mention that it's a retrojet as this was the company's old livery for many years until it was replaced with the current blue and red livery)
