Tony Cannon very kindly repainted the POSKY 737 in ZK-JNO of Qantas NZ colours for me. I decided to take it on a late afternoon flight between Auckland and Wellington today, and I have to say that it was one of the most enjoyable flights I have ever taken in FS. I spent a large amount of time in the spot and wing-view mode, and have uploaded 19 screenies (1.82mb worth) I took along the way:

The RBE 20m mesh really stands out in the late afternoon sun too, creating a skeleton like shadow effect on the hills. Also, all the colours you see above are the actual ones that came with the Real Enviroment Pro sky texture package- not edited. Cool ay B-)

Not being a B737 connoisseur I'm happy to be corrected - did POSKY get the nose of that aircraft wrong?
It looks like a wannabe C130 in some views e.g. Shot 2.

I think you'll find its the way the lights shining on it, shot 2 is a good example of light spill around the window line, look closely and you'll see its reflected light
