New Iraqi Airways colours on first CRJ
Thanks to newscaster for the latest Iraqi Airways CRJ-900 photo, even though I think the old livery will never/EVER be replaced or forgotten!!! Iraqi Airways will always be remembered by its original beautiful green colors and NO DOUBT it will rise again from the ashes. It is maybe true the airline and the whole country of Iraq suffered a major setback but let us not forget who they ONCE were and WHY this happened to the free minded and independent people of Iraq. Unlike Kuwaiti Airlines, and other Gulf airlines such as Emirates and what have you which are operated by a 90% foreign manpower and everyone in the world know them as client states, Iraqi Airways was 100% run by Iraqis and maybe that is the reason why THEY want to keep them grounded. Anyway I hope one day the legal battle between IAC and KAC will be resolved (hopefully soon and not in the UK courts) and both countries will come to their senses and allow their airlines to grow and move forward again in my honest opinion
