    Wow that is hideous! The current livery is ten fold better.

    oh my! Did they run out of paint? Don't like it at all. True that you will be able to really see it coming, huge letters and BRIGHT white.

    What a travesty! They sure aren't saving $$ on paint. Where's the dislike button.

    I am sure enough people liked it to approve it at the board level. Oh wait, what board? The government is biggest part owner But in any case, I don't think it is that bad. You want to see bad?

    Manny, I've got to say I would readily shoot any of the three "bad" ones you suggest over the new Finnair any day - no offense of course :-)

    I normally do not think ill of liveries but this one is seriously awful.

    At least there's something to shoot with billboard titles again.

    honestly the font and the size of the titles aren't bad. i even like the logo on the engines. but it's black on white... same ugliness that is the star alliance livery. BAH!!

    I imagine this livery will look decent enough on an A320 or E-190 but I think there's just too much white on the wide bodies. The white tail is very similar to their older livery:
