Could you imagine what a mess TSA branded flying would be? Scheduling/Planning can't even get the job done with the bones already set in place. Lol

Looked way better when they actually spent money on the paint job and it was done correctly with quality paint that didn't peel off after a week and they actually took some time to paint it well instead of taking it down to MEZ and having it done in Uncle Jake's Aircraft Paint Shop/BBQ.

If you guys have noticed all the "new" UAL birds 809/10/11/12 all the paint is already peeling. Oh, and good luck finding an airplane in our entire fleet that doesn't have a white or black nose cone. Image goes a long way when passengers are walking up to an airplane.

I flew 806 right after it got painted from US colors to generic/united colors, and the landing gear has a blue tint now because of the horrible masking job.

The ex-Mesa birds, 851 and 852, were (are) the exact same way. Never went to Mena, but I went down to Hot Springs a coupld times, including in the back of a 310 in the middle of the night, think that was the same day USAirways went in the drink. Good times

I bet I will be able to entertain myself for hours just thinking of TSA branded flying.
