Allegheny is here. Can't say I like it too much on the 'bus, but at least they are honoring the past.

my opinion says...they should spend the money on getting good customer service, rather than painting planes

I'm pretty sure these planes were bound to be repainted anyhow in MX..so it isnt costing tons of money for a new paint job when it was supposed to get a new one anyhow. I think these are actually good for the airline

Yeah, I read that they are doing the ones that go in for C check. I think it was C check at least? They were going to be repainted anyway so it isn't that much of a extra cost. I think it is neat actually.

I was trying to get Frontier to do a special paint scheme for the 10th anniversary but they said since all the planes were pretty much new, they couldn't justify painting a new airplane that didn't need it.

Looks really nice, I like the tail section a lot actually!! Nice job US AIR.

It looks pretty good. I thought the PSA one looked better. I can't wait for the PDT one. However, it will be a crime to put it on Fifi. It really should go on a 737.

Am I the only one that just sees paint?
