Frontier Airlines has been around in one form or another since its founding in Denver Co in 1950
It operated an all Boeing 737 fleet. First the ‘Jurassic’
and later the ‘Classic’
until its present incarnation, when in 2003, it went over to the competition (and in fact was the launch customer for the A-318, which incidentially its since started taking out of service)
The last ‘classic’ was withdrawn in 2005.
The animal tails began appearing in the ‘90s

and turned into a very successful marketing campaign

this incarnation of the Frontier livery draws on all three of the aircraft types the airline has operated.
A Jurassic registration, a Classic facelift livery and a fin with ‘Maya’, the South American Jaguar, which appeared on an Airbus.
My first ever simulator experience was in a Frontier 737 Jurassic sim out at Stapleton, in the late ‘80s.
And even though I really didn’t have much of a clue,
managed to baffle the Fed with bollocks and passed.
a stressfull experience, which i paid ACT an arm and a leg for.
Looking back though, it was worth every penny.
So this is the ‘Frontier Jurassic Simulator experience memorial’ restoration.
Enjoy!
