Well, in danger of bringing this really OP (mods delete/move, if required), there is a certain other US carrier on the route whose livery is at least as boring in my eyes.

Split off a separate thread about liveries?

^ Off you go, I'm in.

At least the "other" carrier is distinctive. Especially the old grey version and although it does look a bit like a battleship, it is easy to recognise.

For one, I beg to differ. I found the Delta/UA livery good to photograph. Perhaps this comes from a photographer's point of view. Again, anything new paint is a great subject to photograph.

Photo from yesterday takeoff, it left gate early at 0919 LT.

Beautiful photos Sam! I agree, a new livery is great to capture.

But honestly I don't think there's anything wrong with either livery coming from the US

Was going to head down this morning but my need for sleep won out

Those photos are a credit to you Sam, not the Airline's livery. Nice shots.
