I guess it looks better now. It takes time to get used to a newer livery many-a-times especially when we were used to the older livery _________________ http://www.myspace.com/avsatsworld A Walt Disney and 20th Century Fox Audio Producer!!!

WTF were they thinking with the aft design?? new age curves just do not mix with old age cheatline design... moreso when they are made to blend in a fashion like this... the least they could do was let the blue curve on the fuse towards the aft flow seamlessly into the tail.... instead no.... they brought the curve to swoop up much before the tail makin it look like a real rotten mishmash.. _________________ If it aint Boeing..

New aircraft will obviously get the new livery and old aircraft will be repainted when normally scheduled to do so unless the airline wants to pull them out of service for this purpose.

It just looks like - Yeah so what's new? Kind of a livery. Not impressive as AI's and certainly not AIX's.

Although I think the current one by Delta, with the Wave on the tail, carried the wavy look too far..the Delta tail looks like it caught a large parachute or a balloon in its flightpath!! But it looks like Delta is also all set to change its livery! I must say though it must be quite a cost. I wonder how the airlines can invest in this at a time when margins are already squeezed. Or maybe there is some "creative accounting practice" that takes care of that.

What about the cost of paying ridiculous amounts to consultants for even more ridiculous designs? Cheers _________________ Geniuses are always misunderstood in their lifetimes.

What about the rest (yet to come)? In your first pic, the one with the new livery, it has GE engines. The one in the second pic has Rolls-Royce. The reason for this is that the Rolls-Royce one is being leased from ILFC and that is probably what they had available. Since Jet was desperate for aircraft they took it. All the A330s that Jet has directly purchased will have GE engines.

The livery change was contracted out to Landor only in 2006, after the leased aircraft were put into service. Jet isn't Air India.

And what about the leased 340 (i guess no maybe) I don't think that the A340s will be repainted because as B773ERs are on their way, so these A340s will be soon returned to SAA. _________________ Nalini...
