I like CLT-Douglas's submissions in the schemes 1 and 2, but lose the blocky, dippy, corporate flagish kind of graphic on the tail... leave it by the word mark if you must.
Nothing like spending more money to repaint. Haven't seen that done since United did it. Sure has helped them. Maybe the money could be better spend providing unemployment benefits for all the people about to lose their job in the name of consolidation.
Yes! If this merger does happen those of us who see real value in restoring the smiley faces on the planes should write Doug Parker. US has been sitting on the copyright...let's use it!!
If they don't want to put the smile back on the planes, Parker should paint a plane in the old paint schemes of all the previous carriers that have made up USAirways.
