===Liveries===
The 737-300 is FlightGears' most repainted airplane. At the moment more than 25 liveries are available. 23 of them are included in one package, making use of the [[livery selection dialog]], which transmits liveries over the [[Howto: Multiplayer|multiplayer network]].

'''Important to know:'''
The 737-300 in 1.9.1 and earlier wasn't shaped right: the fuselage was too long, and not wide enough, the wings hadn't got the right span.
This has now changed. Unfortunately liveries done for the old model won't match to the new model. It wasn't possible due to the wrong shape of theold model.  There is a paintkit inside the 737-300/Models-Folder, and with a little work it is possible to convert old liveries.
 
A correct aircraft in dimensions and proportions is more important than supporting liveries done for a wrong shaped aircraft.
The new model was added to CVS with permission of the original author, Innis Cunningham.
