So you go with a pastel paint scheme that looks like it was designed by a 3rd grader with a 28 pack of Crayolas?

Its tacky, man...but I don't fly 'em so it doesn't matter. That doesn't mean I won't say "Geebus look at that abortion of a paint scheme" if I see one on a ramp somewhere.

I like it. It has a modern look to it and it stands out. Ever heard of Southwest airlines boiler? Worked for them.

I think freightpusher was referring to the Desert Drab that SWA sported for 25+ years. Even thought most people hated it it became iconic.

Just my opinion
