You're either a chick or super duper or clueless because flying around with baby animals on the tail doesn't quite instill the image of authority on the ground or in the sky. Most any baby animal I find cute, but I personally would be holding my head down if I had to walk around such a fluffiness factor on my aircraft. In other words, for shame cub scout. Somewhere a dead airline pilot is rolling in his grave.

Double shame for that PC crap "happy holidays to all." Merry Christmas, and ask Santa for some testosterone.
I don't think pilots get any say in aircraft paint jobs; I'm pretty sure that's handled by marketing.
I was also under the impression that captain's authority is asserted by bearing, attitude, and demeanor--then backed up by 14 CFR 91.3 and 14 CFR 121.535(d). If your crew is looking to see what color the aircraft is painted to verify your authority, it's your leadership style that's lacking.
Sounds like Mesa provides all of the options you'll ever need--If USAirways adopts a 'fluffy' paint job you can bid over to the United system.
My airlines' branded operations paint job looks like a tube of Aquafresh toothpaste. But come on, baby animals? Not even a Barbie plane, it's more like Barney's. It's all about style...oh, and I guess safety too.
Would you hold personally be holding your head up and grabbing your crotch on pre-flight if there was a lightning bolt through a dagger on the tail?
