It's appropriate for the service level.

When USAir and Piedmont merged they used the red stripe and red lettering for US and Piedmont blue for Air. http://www.airliners.net/photo/USAi...1129961/&sid=c3c82177ce2bef9d89191c06b7d140f3

I still like the UA on tail...when did that start in mid/late 1970's?

The legendary graphic designer Saul Bass came up with United's logo in 1974. He also came up with Continental's logo and many other airlines, businesses and movie graphic sequences.

I was hoping UAL/CAL would come up with something new like Delta (which I think is very classy).

The wonders of photoshop

 

[LaGarbage Man]

Something about the perspective of the "United" and the diffence in focus makes it look photoshopped.

I was thinking the same thing. I think someone is having fun with photoshop.

Wow, they must have spent minutes developing that livery.

 

[Otto77]

this is definitely photshopped...pretty easy to tell. The proposed paint scheme is on the company site and looks nothing like this hackjob.

And Yup you'll be happy to know that SkyWest is already starting to repaint our CRJ 200's and 700's in the new livary. SkyWest probably wouldn't gamble on new paint jobs if the flying was going away?

Is this true, or just some flame bait spew? Not sure why some of you just like to stir up controversy, lord knows their is enough drama in this industry already without creating it....

Who cares. Skywest is just trying to start kissing a%$ earlier than the other regionals providing feed for UAL. Airplanes are painted all the time anyway so Skywest probably had these aircraft scheduled for paint anyway. The 70 seat jets are the only aircraft that might be phased out anyway so why not paint them up now.

Heard about 50% of CAL furloughs have responded to the recall... wonder how many UAL guys will?
