Sorry, off topic..: I wonder how difficult it was for them during 'Heliconia' and 'Hibiscus' liveries were painted...

Great job documenting the hard work that goes into every livery.

I have always loved MH's red livery, cos that's what I grew up associating MH with.

Wouldn't it be nice to top off this transformation by upholstering every seat with the seat covers of the 70s?

That way, the retro feel can be experienced both inside and outside the aircraft!
