[LGA777]

A local Stockholm (ARN) photographer captured US's first arrival in Sweden flown by good olde ship 645, the first 767 in the fleet and the former "Pride of Piedmont".

Someone should point that out to management. That would not take long to fix.

i have seen that on the flag. it's like they painted a small block on it instead of the right size. it does bug me too.

Are the people who accept painted aircraft blind and dumb?

Geez I swear one of these days they'll sign off on one that says Jetblue and not notice anything.

Has someone sent an email to someone yet or should I?

Here's a thought someone send the painting company a PHOTO.

Apparently the napkins with airplane sketches from the tavern on mill are not realistic enough! :angry:

I do not really understand ANY of the paint mishaps, and that includes the heritage planes. If I ran a small station, or department, with the budget it takes to paint one of these aircraft...I sure as heck would inspect it prior to writing the check. My bottom line, as I have said before.....is that any paint put on a U aircraft OTHER than the NEW white paintjob is theft of investor moneys. Again...Get on with it. Enough with the fluff! Best.

Anyone know if this paint mishap has been fixed?
