Southwest Airlines Hosts Student Who Built 787-800 LEGO Model

Jack Carleson, a student at Arizona State University, has been building custom LEGO models for over 10 years now, coming up with the designs and ordering custom parts all by himself. Drawn to our bold, unique color scheme, Jack took on the challenge of creating a custom model of a Southwest 737-800 in 2020! Three months and hundreds of parts later, Jack's masterpiece was finally finished, complete with a full interior of seats and Passengers, a beltloader, functioning flaps and spinning engines!

We were so impressed by Jack's model that we invited him to visit our corporate headquarters for a tour. He graciously agreed to bring his model, now on display at Southwest HDQ!
