American Airlines New Livery Now in Service
The new livery lands at San Francisco. One of the best amateur videos I could find. (www.youtube.com) 更多...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]

I have seen several post of people saying that they have seen repainted aircraft with the new livery....Given the current state of the economy, fuel prices and their never ending desire to cut crew pay it seems to me that using the current paint schemes would just make more sense. Afterall all aircraft have to be replaced anyway at some point....why spend extra money?...Just add the new livery to all planes entering service.
Just saw an EGF ERJ in the new livery fwiw.
the livery is not as bad as I thought it was whenever I first saw it.....I just hate to see the US Airways livery or the US Airways brand go away.....In my opinion it makes it seem as if the US Airways brand failed and was acquired by American when it is actually the other way around.
Well, remember what happened when America West bought USAir?
That's confusing me. I may be reading it wrong. But America West bought US Airways and then the new US Airways bought American. US Air wasn't acquired by American it was quite the opposite. I'm thinkin'.
Sorry to be the one to inform you, but USAir (or America West) did not "acquire" anything. American Airlines MERGED with US Airways. The fact that Parker becomes the President of the merged airline means only that the new board selected him for that position - nothing else.
American Airlines, even while in Bankruptcy, has nearly four times the cash reserves, 2 times the employees and 2 times the aircraft and over twice the revenue. AMR Shareholders will own 72% of the merged company which will still be Ft. Worth based and retain the iconic American Airlines name.
Do not fool yourself into believing that US Air "bought" American Airlines.

Do you wonder why?
Incidentally, Parker doesn't become the President of the merged airline - he retains the CEO position.
