Pit Bull love
And the night is warmed by the memory of long ago, and the heart of a man and his dogs. Peace is found within us in the place we choose to embrace it, whatever the circumstances around us. Home is where the heart is.

And one from 2007 when I shot in low quality JPEGs and automatic mode because idiot; note the Google 767 parked by the Superbay hanger.

Bottom of the list
At least they don't pronounce it like the Canucks "deckles"

It sucks that these retrojets are grey(seriously, what other airline has done a retrojet but decided to paint the plane the wrong color?), but that being said, I love this one. The RenoAir retro is crap, but this is great.

Saw the TWA one in Philly today next to a new livery Airbus. It seems the grey is the same grey as the normal livery.
Also, is it just me, or has anyone else noticed we have TWO America West retro schemes and only one of the rest (and no USAir)?

They did the original America West retrojet in the (then) current HP livery. Then people complained that it wasnt historic enough so hey, what the hell, lets do the original livery.

Actually...at least the 80s America West retro has been painted into another anonymous American plane. Sad, as it was one of my favorites. I hope the other Airbus liveries don't follow.
But I agree it's the same grey AA is using. Decals need to come off, ok, slap on the AA ones, put the plane back in service. Who cares what it looks like, right? A half-assed effort is still effort.

The Challenger, so easy a Gulley can land it.

If you lose an engine just swim faster than everybody else.Recent fun on a time building trip. Somebody is almost done with his ATP minimums. He will surely miss these sights at his first regional job.
Shark watch.
When I was mapping over the southern Louisiana swamps from New Orleans to Lake Charles, I told my camera man, "all I have to do is swim faster than you" and if you're ahead of me, I'll grab your ankles and pull you behind me".

Terribly disappointed with the TWA livery. That was my favorite one.

Must have happened in the last 10 days because our fleet list is still showing ships 828 (old AWA) and 838 (new AWA) as Heritage Aircraft as of 20 November. Not to mention they were parked side-by-side in Philly about two weeks back.
The only Airbus liveries that seem to be going away are the Theme aircraft. The only one left is the Carolina Panthers A319. The Arizona and Nevada liveries are still listed as well.
