Would love to see a black/orange scheme DL bird, with the old triangle "speed safety comfort" logo. A "Northwest Orient" retro would be another good one, and I'd also like to see a retro "Yellowbird" and "Wallybird". Wouldn't be too surprised if those show up in the near future. Would suggest Pan Am, but we sold the rights to that. Probably should have kept that corporate identity over Delta, despite the tarnished image. More recognizable than Coca-Cola around the world. Is it too soon to have a retro 747 in Republic colors? Anyone?
The good old days are now. Enjoy them while you can.
