New AA Livery to be announced shortly

[bizicmo]

Why is it that every bankrupt airline can't afford to pay its agreed contracts with labor, but has enough to repaint the fleet?

They don't have enough money to repaint the fleet, the employees are paying for it. Or they stripped off the old paint and found this underneath.

America is finished. Why shouldn't American be finished too?

Lipstick. Pig. Etc.....

The more I see the new logo, the more I think they could fix this whole mess by having the new stylized Eagle logo enlarged to fit the entire tail. That stylized Eagle logo on the tail would be striking and go with the rest of the livery perfectly. Anyone at AA want to send that idea to your bosses?

Hard for an airline to have a nice paintjob???!?!?! Alaska Airlines has kept that beautiful face on the tail for years now!

US Airways... please come fix this soon!!!

Who says Doug Parker wasn't the one that approved this design?

The challenge will be maintaining the look of the flag on the junky MD80s that tend to have very sooty/dirty tails. Those flags will look black after awhile.

You really think they will EVER paint an MD80 with this paint?

US had a bunch of guys in HQ come up with their new design. They wanted to make sure there never was another mismatched radome. And that was about it.

I don't think anyone told AA that it is impossible to accurately match silver touch-up paint, so stand by for the liver-spotted 737.

So when is the merger going to be announced?

UA is STILL up in arms over using one of their F/As for AS's logo.
