Airliners need repainting from time to time. Delta isn`t gonna repaint the entire fleet. However, when one needs a paint job, it`ll get the "new" one. I just hope it isn`t gonna be the one that we`ve all seen pictured. The "widget" is almost as recognizable as "Coca Cola' or "Ford' or "GE". I hope they don`t monkey around with that(again). That idiot, Mullins had the company pay a PR firm a lotta money to come up with the idea to change the "Widget" to the "Smiley Faced One". Thank goodness Grinstein and company bent to employee pressure and change it back.
