jzeitlin Posted January 17, 2013 Report 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.
Patrik Hedström Posted January 17, 2013 Report Posted January 17, 2013 I just love it! It is a million times better then there old peice of crap they had in my opinion.
ryancz Posted January 17, 2013 Report Posted January 17, 2013 I loved their bare metal. I'll miss it.
clavel9 Posted January 17, 2013 Report 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.
jzeitlin Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Posted January 17, 2013 it looks horrible plus the costs must be insane. the bare metal saved them a lot of dough
sqrt(-1) Posted January 17, 2013 Report 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.
greggerm Posted January 18, 2013 Report Posted January 18, 2013 The fuselage is fine... the tail is horrid.
Dhruv Posted January 18, 2013 Report 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
Redfisher Posted January 18, 2013 Report Posted January 18, 2013 Yearly paint bill just went up.... 1
andydckent Posted January 18, 2013 Report 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.
Jordan P. Posted January 18, 2013 Report Posted January 18, 2013 i hated the old livery i thought it was too old looking i like the white and i love the tail looks awesome! 1
