X-Plane Southwest Airlines "City Hopper" Boeing 737-800

Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-800 livery for tail number N8525S brings a real-world March 2017 delivery look to the Zibo 737, complete with scimitar winglets and a custom “City Hopper” nose marking for extra character. Built for X-Plane 11, it refreshes the exterior textures while keeping airline styling crisp and consistent.
