N901AW	B757-2S7	America West		1998-07

This striking scheme was unveiled on April 20, 1995. N916AW sported the colors of the flag of Arizona, where America West's Phoenix hometown and biggest hub was located. The scheme was unveiled about a year after Southwest painted its Arizona One logojet. When N916AW -which was a leased aircraft- was returned to the lessor in April 1998, sistership 901 gained the Arizona Flag scheme; she would be replaced in turn by A319 N826AW. The scheme and colour tones were slightly different on the two 757s.

The flag of Arizona consists of 13 rays of red and gold on the top half (the colors of the flag of Spain) and the number 13 represents the 13 original states of the USA. The copper star refers to the copper mining industry while the blue represents the Colorado River.

Arizona One was unveiled in Phoenix on May 23, 1994 with much fanfare as the second state flag scheme. Arizona was an obvious choice because PHX was the airline's busiest station with more than 160 daily flights at that time. Ship 383 was withdrawn from service in late September 2017 and ship 955 was unveiled in the Arizona scheme in February 2018.

The flag of Arizona consists of 13 rays of red and gold on the top half, the colors of the flag of Spain, representing the 13 original states. The copper star represents the copper mining industry while the blue represents the Colorado River.
