    Atlas Air Pax 747-400

    Now that Atlas Air is planning to do pax ops from Houston to Luanda, they are prepping a passenger 747-400 to support the operation. I have a friend who was going through HKG the other day and saw it parked outside an Mx hangar. Apparently it has a slightly different paint job, but still retains the naked dude on the tail.

    Anybody seen any pictures yet??

    Failed attempt at sarcasm on my part.....

    During my time at Atlas, he was referred to as "naked dude, holding a beach-ball"

    Plus they now have a leasing company which shows a 767. The company is called Titan

    Here is an updated shot of the aircraft:

    The livery slightly resembles the actual Sonair livery.

    Wow .. that's UGLY IN CAPITAL LETTERS! simply awful looking. Virgin Atlantic old colors meets some fake TV airline from the Middle East?

    A normal tail logo would have been 100x better than this ugliness


    That Sonair livery isn't that great but is A LOT prettier for sure, although i don't really see any resemblance to this one.

    It looks like a flying can of corn oil. Just as greasey as one too.
