A visit to Palisades Park, with a sky distraction courtesy of Southwest Airlines.

Southwest Airlines was a fantastic partner for the Inland Northwest Honor Flight staff, beginning with our first flight in 2010. SWA provided the free transportation for the smaller groups of veterans that we flew for the first several years.
Years later we began to charter our aircraft for the cross country trips, but we will not ever forget how SWA helped us get to a self funded flight schedule from community donations.
I still like the colors of their aircraft, even from the ground looking up.
