Great catch and click, Mark. I've got all five of DAL's 737s dressed in the Skyteam garb, but I do not have a DAL 757 wearing these clothes. At present, Delta does not fly 57s into Reno; however, DAL is starting new service here in December (RNO-ATL direct) and I'm hoping they use 757 equipment on the route. If they do, I'll have a chance at snapping this one. *****

Hi Gary thank you for the comment.

I was a bit interested in Delta's new service to RNO so I did a little bit of digging on Delta's website. There is a little bit of good news for you, but quite a bit more bad.

Delta WILL be flying 757s on every frequency that I can see (I went from the start of the service on 12/19 all the way through mid January)... that's the good. The bad is, that through the holidays they have two flights per week (not per day, but per week) and after that the frequency drops to one flight a week. And to add just a little more bad news, the flight won't get in until about 8:30 pm, but it does leave at 7am the next morning so depending on the time of year you will get a chance to snap it in daylight before it leaves.

Hopefully though if it is profitable they will up the number of frequencies per week and you will get more chances to see this paint on a 757 :)

Wow

Thanks Roy :)

Nice side shot! I almost saw this one, but it came in the day before I arrived.

Thanks Dwight! I'm sure you will get another chance to snap it out at RDU :) It seems to visit SNA almost weekly.

Mark ... Hey, TY for the info about the equipment (757) DAL will use. I knew about the schedule and frequency because that info was announced during the new service celebration, but I had not known it would indeed be a 757. The daytime / nighttime hours (for photos) are not a concern because I can get right out on the DAL ramp to snap it. It will be super to see B757 paxbirds here again. UPS and FDX have them here, but regularly scheduled 757 passenger jets stopped coming here quite a while ago. With all the new businesses coming here, the influx of new residents is heavy, so hopefully it means even more large passenger liners will soon be coming.
