Your favourite airliner livery

[bigjobs]

I was sitting in the US the other day watching planes come and go at ORD and was wondering which one of these is my favourite looking paint job (gotta fill your head with something while in transit right?)

i really think the Canadian North (5T) livery is one of the best i have seen.

if you care to share your favourite i would be interested to read ...

cheers.

I don't mind Vietnam Airlines. For a look at the livery see
Vietnam Airlines

I don't mind the gun metal grey look to some of the United Airlines aircraft. See:

Quite like the livery on Alaskan airlines.

It's amazing what some people think looks nice!

I think that grey United colour scheme is very 1980's (dated, drab and too heavy) and is actually their old livery with the newer one gradually being rolled out:

New one is much cleaner, fresher and contemporary.

But I think Thai's new livery is one of the best out there:

Distinctively Thai, stylish with new mica finish.

I'll go with the big black eskimo on the tail of Alaskan Airline (I hope its an eskimo)

Wunala Dreaming of course (Ok, it's a special livery). Add MH's "Hibiscus" and Air Pacific's "Island of Viti Levu" also as my top favourites.

When it comes to standard liveries, absolutely adore Air Tahiti Nui.

Cheers

I like the ones that are completely painted (as opposed to just the logo on the tail), so Wunala Dreaming and the MH Hibiscus ones get my vote.

The CX "Silver Bullets" aren't my favourite, but show how good a plane can be with no paint and heavily polished. Airliners.net Photos: Cathay Pacific Airways Cargo Boeing 747-467F/SCD

I think any plane painted with a special design looks great. Anything to make it different from the others in the same fleet.

Excellent stuff folks ... love the MH Hibiscus plane ... i flew on Wunala Dreaming the other day LAX - SYD ...

The CX Silver Bullet is cool looking too, for some reason it looks faster than a normal 747-400

keep em' coming

Hmm.. I think that that one looks almost as ugly as AAs unpainted aeroplanes.

Also just love those massive Rolls Royce Trents:!:

I'll go with the big black eskimo on the tail of Alaskan Airline (I hope its an eskimo)

I thought it was the face of the founder. It might well be an eskimo though. Not sure.

Love Air Pacific,makes you feel like your are in Fiji without bieng there.
Also loveMalaysia Airlines as well.

Maybe I am alone in my likes, but I think the new Boeing livery is fantastic. This is the Boeing 777-200LR on display at the Paris Airshow in June 2005 at Le Borget.

And although nothing to do with the pait scheme, this shot of the same aircraft is an impressive view of the GE90-115 donk.
