Keep An Eye Out For This at JFK

[Iberia A340-600]

The third Primaris 757-200 has been painted in full Constellation colors.

Don't think I like them very much...

How Easternish!

Wow that's BEAT. I thought the colors of N741PA was supposed to be their normal colors....as it shows on their safety cards.

Very Easternish indeed.

That picture is from PHX, by the way. I saw it sitting on the ramp as I taxied out for departure to ATL yesterday. It looks good in the desert sun, although I can imagine it'll look pretty dull in some of the gray Northeast winter weather.

You mean you saw it and didn't grab a shot of it? A shot like that might be considered rare on Anet.

Eastern had style but these snake lines are not very elegant at all.. I think it'll be more decent if it was white instead of the fake metal paint. I hope we'll see the red Primaris livery with titles someday and this hasn't replaced it.

N742PA is now parked near Bldg 260 (El Al Cargo/DJ Air Services). It's got the scheme mentioned, but is a more shiny gray paint. Still looks cheap though, I think.

I saw the Pegasus 757 N741PA was inbound to JFK on Saturday afternoon. I agree it would be nice if they just split them between blue and red and forgot the whole Constellation scheme..

I think you mean Primaris.

They've got three planes now. Yet, their site implies they haven't began service yet, and boasts a fleet of 737s and also 787s by 2009. Riiiiight.

That was their original plan however things fell through and the 787 and 737 orders were canceled.

And I thought I was bad at updating the site!

I've seen it, if you think the outsides cheap, you should see the all-economy seating interior.In all my years I have never seen an aircraft that cramped.

Looking at some airliner.net shots and most say (untitled) "Pegasus Aviation" and now I'm confused. Either way, N741PA was put into service after getting painted in that red scheme for Santa Barbara airlines, and never got any titles. Then I saw it operating under Primaris flying FLL-POS and again never got any titles. TIME TO GET SOME TITLES! (meanwhile the gray ugly 757s always have some haha). It was operating in Europe this summer.

Pegasus Aviation is a leasing company, and according to the FAA they do own N741PA. Primaris must lease it from them.

[PhilDernerJr]

Nice. Hence the "PA" in the registration.

I actually had an employee of Primaris try to convince me that the planes were former Pan Am planes...pointing out the regi and the bluish seats on the inside.
