Etihad A346

[matthew mcdonald]

I have heard that the next Etihad A340-600 to be delivered (A6-EHJ) will be painted in special Ferrari colours. Can anyone confirm this.

Considering their sponsorship of the Ferrari F1 Team as well as the Abu Dhabi GP starting next year, and Mubadala being a sponsor as well, it would not surprise me.

They have this A320 in F1 livery http://myaviation.net/search/photo_s...hp?id=01256340

But i can't find anything regarding A6-EHJ unfortunately. I would expect it to look very spectacular though! (Despite my support for Red Bull Racing)

It is test flying in Toulouse painted all white so a special scheme is to be expected.

Lets just hope it doesn't crash through a jetblast barrier before it makes it to the paintshop.

Dear all,

EH454 has a delayed arrival time of 2235 into Sydney tonight. So it will be departing at around 0700 tomorrow morning. For anyone who wants to photograph an A#46 of Etihad's tomorrow morning is the best oppurtunity.

And here is A6-EHJ in the F1 scheme:
