That was the original 757 CS when the first ones were delivered, now if they did a 777 in that scheme it might look OK.

I would love to see the last BOAC livery before they changed to British Airways

And here is the classic livery on a British Airways B747-200 back in 1980 (seen here at Tullamarine).

I'd love to see Qantas do a retro scheme on a 744.

Just my thoughts but I think it would look better/great overall on their new 777-300ers.... anyone agree?:)

Think the 757 would have looked better in the Landor Scheme much better livery that was.

That one would be spot on! Anything earlier on a 744 wouldn't look right.

Even with 2 big trips overseas in 2005 & 2008 I only managed to snap these two examples:

Lufthansa A321 D-AIRX at Frankfurt May 2005
Austrian A320 OE-LBP at Heathrow May 2008
