jzeitlin Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Hey Guys what are your thoughts of the look of American's new livery? I have to say i'm not impressed. I liked the uniqueness of the old livery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clavel9 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Enormously ugly, undistinguished in every way. The AA-eagle logo still looked fresh after 45 years. I'll miss it more than the polished metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzeitlin Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 it looks horrible plus the costs must be insane. the bare metal saved them a lot of dough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqrt(-1) Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 The problem is that more and more composite materials are making their way into aircraft construction. The 787, for example, is predominantly built of composites. You simply cannot get that polished look that AA had all these years with it. The livery change, much to most people's dismay, has become a necessary evil. I agree with most here the new style leaves a bit to be desired.

Dhruv Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 They've taken a design icon that was preached as an instant classic and replaced it with what looks to have been done by a 13 year-old in Microsoft Paint. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andydckent Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 It looks awful! Especially the tail. Old livery with silver paint, or how about chrome plating lol, would have been better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
