Painting a Boeing 737: See The Video
The cost is between $100,000 to $200,000 to prep and paint each plane, depending on which colors are chosen, and how many colors.
How do you paint a new Boeing 737? The folks at Southwest Airlines recently did. Check out the video below.
It costs between $100,000 to $200,000 to prep and paint each plane, depending on which colors are chosen, and how many colors.
The paint on a 737 adds about 555 pounds to the weight of the aircraft.
