FS2004 Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-700 . A repaint of the FFX 737-700 With WINGLETS in Southwest Airlines original livery. Includes reflective textures.
Installation:
Some people are having trouble finding the base file, and it is rather large, so I am going to include it with this release.
Full credit for the model goes to FFX.
Unzip into your FS2004 (FS9) aircraft folder and then edit the aircraft.cfg file

description="The 737-700 has the same fuselage as the 737-300 and is fitted with the new wing, stabilizer, and tail sections. The 737-700 is 110ft. 4in. long and can carry up to 148 passengers in an all-economy configuration. The distinctive winglets contribute to fuel economy, and reduce drag. Engines: CFM56-7, Fuel capacity: 46,063lbs., Max Cruise altitude: 41,000 ft., Range: 3,300nm, Cruise Speed: .785Mach (530mph).
This is my third attempt to repaint something for 2004. IT ISN'T PERFECT, but since Southwest is flying the 737-300 with winglets on a couple of their aircraft, and I haven't seen any, I thought it would be a good chance to see if I could meet the challenge. This shouldn't kill your frame rates. I have flown it and I don't have a real "screaming" system, but it seems to do ok. When I get a little bette at repainting and understanding textures, I may try to update things a little. I just wanted to contribute this to the flight sim community for those who wish to have new Southwest planes in thier hangers.
The model is the FFX version, so this file cannot obviously be sold or used for profit in anyway. Keep it FREE and keep the Hobby enjoyable for everyone.
If you have any comments or questions, you may email me but please be gentle since I'm still learning!
HAPPY LANDINGS! enjoy.

From the original readme.txt:
-------------------------------------------
DOORS: Shift+E opens the main cabin door, as it does with every FS aircraft. Why people still email me about it I'll never know.
AIRSTAIRS: To get the airstairs to deploy you must assign a key for wing fold. Bear in mind, if you deploy the stairs, the wings are folded - and you will not be able to fly!!!
CANOE LIGHTS: The 737-100 through -500 all have retractable landing lights on the flap canoes. To extend ours, you must assign a key for tailhook.
