Azuddin 1 Report post Posted May 12, 2006 I think he means "werewolves"...you know..a guy/gal saw full moon and suddenly they change into a biggg wolf..I think I saw it in movie "Underworld" yeah, thats the one, wrong spelling, my bad. the solution for turning a werewolf back into human is by using a silver bullet. just a myth, don't take it serious. if the want to use silver fuselage, i will be more agree if the use silver on all white part, by getting rid of all white paint.

Sneeze Lam 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2006 However, I think CX has over consideration on those comman-usage components. Therefore making this a/c look strange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S V Choong 4 Report post Posted May 12, 2006 Well I think it looks okay. Something different from the normal CX scheme. I don't think the JAL scheme is any better. Nevertheless it is a cost cutting measure. Thanks for sharing Sneeze. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seth K 3 Report post Posted May 13, 2006 I would look great if this is a shiny new plane. But this? It made the plane look old and tired. Agree, but what can livery on freight effect the company? And of course their popularity still the same, can carry more cargo, save cost etc. If they do this to pax plane, may effect them some...........it just an eyesore for some spotters out there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azuddin 1 Report post Posted May 13, 2006 silver doesn't go well with green, just like air canada. silver does goes well with red, such as JAL and NWA. blue is good as well. Azuddin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S V Choong 4 Report post Posted May 13, 2006 (edited) silver doesn't go well with green, just like air canada. silver does goes well with red, such as JAL and NWA. blue is good as well. Yeah have to agree with that. Under silver, the dark green does not stand out as well as red or blue. Perhaps Cathay should have used white lines around the perimeter of the green in order to make it stand out. Just an idea anyway, it may not work AA, JL, and now CX all in Silver Not forgetting AeroMexico (current), old Northwest livery and the defunct Flying Tigers Sneeze do you know if the all-white 744 at the background is one of the ex-SIA 747-412s acquired by CX?
