American... new image and livery

[James S.]

The renderings look much worse than what the livery looks in person. Maybe they were a bit too gung-ho with the overly patriotic livery, but I think it will warm to most people over time, it's always hard to please people with what was previously such an iconic livery. Also, does anybody remember how they said that it was going to be a bit retro? Am I the only one reminded of the tail being reminiscent of the pattern of early WW2 US fighters? How would that go down with their Narita flights?

I actually like this new livery.Not sure if any of you guys collect model aircrafts but inflight200 have just announce the release of the 737-800 1/200 scale which will be available in April.

I happened to see an American jet with the new livery take off under a rare cloudy Vegas sky today and I must say the contrast of the horizontal bright blue and red striped tail against the grey fuselage and cloudy sky looked great as it flew up and out into the distance. It will suit the winter skies of its northern hubs for sure.
