Today Martinair unveilled their new livery, after flying 30 years with the same. Here are some photos.

What do you think? I think it looks more modern but it's not an improvement over their old one. I certainly don't like the all-white-no-imagination-uninspired fuselage.

In progress:
An-124 Volga-Dnepr
Daco 737-300 VARIG
Challenger CL-604

I think it looks good. But I always prefer a cheatline over no cheatline.

Oh the good old Martinair of the 60's...!!!

Could people find it as boring then as we find the current white whales? Can't possibly be! A jet had some aura then, was some kind of a wonder of modern times... not a consumer product like nowadays.

Hmmm...lean on Phillippe to issue that DC-8 livery!

As for your question, well, what could be as boring as a white whale? Keanu Reeves as Valmont? No...maybe that's a bit of a stretch....Madonna as Madame Bovary? Hmmm....nope, it wouldn't sell either.

Sorry, Martinair, but as for your new livery.....yawn.
