It's well known that the Chinese will copy anything and everything. The problem is that it doesn't usually work.

It certainly does look like someone got their 'inspiration' from a well-known insignia. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, except in many cases emanating from China it is a direct knock off without any compensation to the original manufacturers or creators. I wonder what the reaction will be when countries in the West do the same to a well known Chinese mainland product ? A shrug of the shoulders or a legal onslaught

Utter tosh! Nothing like the IBERIA livery other than the colours. And from what I saw when I was in China, Chinese carriers generally have much more inventive and attractive liveries than many of the boring liveries adorning western world carriers.

I'd be a bit more worried about the way they're tempting Providence with the name of the airline.

I'd be more concerned if they named it Unlucky Air!

Well yes, the tail pattern is a knock off of BA's, with Iberia colours, I think that's what he was getting at

Rather like the last Canadian and the dark blue United schemes were basically similar to the 1980s British Airways grey top scheme. Then, of course, the world and his wife followed Air France down the white fuselage road and many added bill board titles a la Pan Am.
