Whats with Saudia retro asyle livery on three new aircraft

Is it their new look on two 787X and an A321N, how can an airline go back to a look dropped almost thirty years ago, its not exactly same but still, kind of like what JAL did but that was just ten years later they brought back crane logo and the 1980s style title.

Isn't it a 75th Anniversary special? I don't suppose they are going to paint all their aircraft like that, although I always quite liked that livery. I seem to recall it also being on a Williams F1 car back in the day. Gulf Air have something similar going on.
If you can't think of a way to go forwards, there is only one way to go!

It’s on one 777, one 787 and one 321NEO. Just a commemorative thing on a few aircraft of different types, not going back.

Again No, 77W has the retro livery but lacks white border around tail


787 and A321 are retro inspired, modified fonts for titles, lacking Saudia on tail, white belly, green engines, no back nose, cheatlines under window line
