Here are some shots of a MD-83 Northwest repaint on flight starting in the early morning and arriving down in Florida in the afternoon.

Just after takeoff, these wings are transparent for some reason.

Did you have any problems flying the MD-83. Everytime I get that sucker off the ground,I have problems getting the plane to take a turn without taking a nosedive on A/P and crashing.

I did in fact notice some problems. I didn't have any real problems while in the air, however taxing on the ground was a pain, it just wouldn't turn. They're seem to be some problems, but overall it's not an entirely unpleasant experience.
