	The blue/white & red is the one to do. I flew out of Dayton, OH. I now live in NW Georgia. I see you live in Spokane Eric. I'm originally from Seattle. Jerry

	The blue and white and red is the classic Piedmont livery... I have great memories of flying these old pacemakers from KORF to KORD with a stopover at KRIC in between. Piedmont played a very important roll in the 737 history so a repaint of one of these birds would be amazing. Thanks in advance. Jack

	really looking forward to the repaints. after the piedmont-usair merger, there was at least one that was silver but with the blue piedmont name and blue cheat lines. thank you again for everybody's interest. (one of these days i'll learn how to do a repaint)

	If anyone does the Piedmont livery, someone should do this classic version, flown from 1969 to 1973, dark blue cheat line with two dark blue stripes on the tail, N734N pictured here was Piedmont's very first 732, the "Piedmont Pacemaker", delivered in 1969.

	Someone could do this one for a Piedmont 721, this is N727OC "Empire State Pacemaker", the second of two 721's leased to Piedmont from Boeing in 1967 while awaiting delivery of the 732, the first 721 leased to Piedmont was N68650 "Manhattan Pacemaker", sadly this aircraft FLT 22 was destroyed in a mid air collision with a twin engine Cessna shortly after departure form Asheville NC July 19th 1967.

	Here is a Piedmont scheme flown in 1973 right before the change to the modern Piedmont scheme, this is N738N "Hampton Roads Pacemaker".

	i remember the "pepsi cola" colors from the 1960's. it never looked right on the 727 and YS11. this would look nice too and be closer to the launch dates of the 73-200!

	Awesome scheme, just an observation on fuselage types, but this one and many others ive seen have the same types of doors and engines that the 707 had, makes me wonder what year of mfg the 737 captain sim chose was.

	Yeah, I've always thought the dark blue classic scheme looked better than the modern one

	The one that is already in progress that was displayed by Savannah last week looks beautiful! That is the classic livery for Piedmont in my humble opinion. Gotta love all the attention this topic is getting! Jack

	I plan on doing the classic as well. As a former USAir guy, I have a soft spot for all things Piedmont. ). All I ask is a little patience. Work has kept me very busy the past week and I have my son's graduation this week, and family in town after that. Just doesn't leave a lot of time for working on hobbies. But I promise to get them both done as soon as I possibly can.

	Oh that's fine with me, understand about real life and all, take your time. Know what you mean about USAir, folks around here hate them, Piedmont was 100 times better airline than USAir could ever hope to be
