Legacy paint jobs

Waste of money imho. Passenger can’t tell one airline’s pilots from another. Like they know or care about livery. They just want a cheap ticket and to be on time.

So there may be more Northwest livery in the design than you realize and this design was created and announced in April of 2007 by Gerald Grinstein, who was only short term CEO after replacing Mullins and his crappy paint job of wavey flag. Shortly after RA joined the BOD at Delta.
Perhaps a lil bit of pre-merger conspiracy theory but it's all very interesting how it lines up, total red widget and all.

And of course, as otherwise noted, our branding strategy is to increase brand awareness when it's our own aircraft. Not that I think all the code sharing helps with that.

I'd rather get the historic NWA "airmail" wings than any of their ugly paint job(s). Even if we keep the widget as our wing centerpiece, the wings themselves should be real wings, not some abstract cheap gas station ice scraper looking thing that looks like the guy who taped a banana on a wall made it.
