US Air with old livery on DC-9

US Air with old livery on DC-9

One of my favorite airline liveries was the old USAir with the bare metal and gradients of red. Normally that doesn’t fit into liveries I normally like. I seem to not like designs on the metal fuselage, I don’t like having a cheat line of any sort and red is not one of my favorite colors. However, for some reason when pulled together it worked. I wasn’t so thrilled with the livery after this one.

Continental Airline Liveries

Continental Airline Liveries

Following airline livery change has always been a big interest of mine. I can’t help but get a little excited every time I see an airline breaking out an old livery to celebrate one thing or another.

It looks that Continental Airlines will allow employees to vote which past livery they want to paint a new aircraft to celebrate their 75th anniversary. I would personally like to see either the golden jet or the black meatball liveries back on a new aircraft. Which would you like to see?
