Airframe story
N8660A is a Boeing 737-8H4, serial 36654, built in 2015 and delivered new to Southwest Airlines Co, which has held the registration since 2015. Southwest's "Lone Star One" Texas-themed livery, which first flew on November 7, 1990 on a different 737-300 that was retired in 2016, was later painted onto a 737-700 and then, in early 2024, moved onto this airframe, making N8660A the third jet to carry the scheme. The repaint was done at Spokane International Airport, with the aircraft having flown there from Oakland International on February 11th. Over the past observed year the jet logged 1,742 flights and 3,327.2 hours, and Stabilator's data shows it recently spent 13 days at KGSO before its current stop at KSAN, though the reason for that ground time is not confirmed. Several sister ships from the same production run, including N8684F and N8682B, remain active in Southwest's fleet.
Livery guess: Southwest Airlines "Lone Star One" special livery. Sources describe the Lone Star One scheme being moved onto N8660A in early 2024 after repainting at Spokane International Airport
