Presenting the Aerosoft Bombardier CRJ-700 in the colours of Eastern Air Lines, as seen on N8901E a DC-9-14 which operated with Eastern between 1971 and 1979. The bare metal finish was introduced in 1977 and would replace the white which backed the New Mark/Hockeystick scheme of blue cheatlines down the fuselage and up the tail from its inception in 1965. The bare metal finish would last until the demise of the airline in 1991, with only a change to the pattern of the cheatlines occuring between 1981 and 1990.

5 stars isn't enough. Well done sir! If you're feeling up for it, a port to the 900 variant? Otherwise, screw it. Still easily the coolest livery for the 7.

Thanks, love seeing more Eastern liveries coming out!
Would you be willing to do the vintage white-top version a la this link? If not, would you mind my giving it a go in the future? Thanks!

I will do the white top, especially since it should be a pretty easy conversion from this one. Saw there was a request for the white top version too, but only after I'd finished this.
