Cathay's New Livery

[Foxdeux]

Looking at photos of their new livery it looks hideous on the 777 but it looks great on the A350. The old livery looked great on the 777, especially the 777-9X, but it just looked inbred on the A350.

Thoughts?

Who really cares? Certainly not me. Of all the many things CX needs to fix, the livery is most assuredly NOT among them. Nero fiddles...

I'm overcoming my apathy to write that regarding the KA scheme, if I held the design rights to the QANTAS scheme I would be suing the pants of the CPG for copying it.

In the first video, the plane looks like it's being held up with tape. How appropriate, the airline is too.

They should paint the planes in puke color, then the corporate identity would match the feeling of nausea the employees feel when they think of Cathay.

For the same reason CX can't sue this company for stealing their scheme. It has been changed enough that it doesn't breach copyright and trademark laws.
