Have they gone against the bare metal concept? http://www.justplanes.com/images/8578.jpg

I once heard that the bare metal look weighed more due to the types of lacquer they used and by reason that it had to be reapplied on a much more regular basis...heard this a few years ago & would be interested to know how true it is.

Even NWA Cargo have gone against their decades old bare metal look and now paint the freighters in full livery.
Personally I prefer full painted livery over bare metal as the latter gives a kind of cheap skate image to the company if the entire fleet is not in that look.
