787 title on the Boeing 737-800?

Good day,

i recently saw Travel Service 737 (reg. OK-TVL) and on the tail it has 787-800 title instead of 737-800. I sadly didn´t have camera but there is a photo on another server. Not sure if I can post it here.

Does anybody knows, what that means? Some joke, or TVS´s 787 is going to be build?

Hi,

I think the 3 just appears as 8. Check this photo of the same aircraft:

Travel Service is the only Czech carrier that back in 2007 ordered one 787 and holds purchase rights for one more.

I checked the planes.cz website and it look like it is really 787, because in arrivals is written

09.01.2012 Travel Service (OK-TVL with Boeing 787-800 tit) PUJ,TER/... Boeing 737-800

I have no idea why TVS did that.

OK, I see. If it was done on purpose then most probably to promote their 787 order.

The first 737 with the 787 titles. :-)
