Default Look out for BA 747

All you photographers look out for BA 747 G-CIVP One World titles replacing British airways titles.

certainly is interesting...did see on a.net that there was a comparison between the BA one world logojet and Singapore Airlines *Alliance jet. In most cases, I do prefer the BA one as it does keep its identitiy, however some of the other one world jet don't..

It looks really good. Not as prominent as the Star Alliance ones but still very nice. It would be good if all the oneworld airlines had at least one logo jet.

Agree with Sarah, would be great to see this on aircraft from all member airlines.

Cheers

I find that livery mundane at best.

In contrast to that, give me the Etihad F1 scheme any day.

Nick,

Although you might find it 'mundane at best', It's had the desired affect and got you talking and noticing it!

To condemn it

But your right, any publicity is good publicity.

I suspect this is because we look for and even relish these sorts of things. As for the general travelling public, I don't think it will be noticable to them and certainly not to the same level as Star Logo Jets.
