Southwest Japan 737-200 and/or 737-300?

wooji · 04-29-2002, 03:54 PM

While the Aviation Center is selling the 737-200 from Southwest Japan, Herpa is selling the 737-300 to it's clubmembers. Atleast that's what is written on the orderform. Did I miss something? Are there really 2 versions of this model or is this just a print error?

I live in Japan.
SWAL(South West Air Lines) was operation B732 but didn't have B733.

B737-300 may be fantasy model.

I think it is a type error. The model on the order form of the Herpa Wings Club carries the same registration as the -200, so I think it should be a Boeing 737-200.

Nope, the Japanese one was a different company, as far as I know it is now JTA (Japan Transocean Air)
