    Alaska also have a dark blue scheme and don't forget the salmon scheme.

    I think if they did all their planes in the Salmon they'd be broke...

    how about a nice bare metal, the shine would look nice against the snowy background of AK

    Didn't some mountain-operating airline paint their planes in construction orange or red so if it crashed in the snow it would be easy to find?

    I always thought that would be a good idea, though the black streak in the snow should be enough....

    on SAS they have orange survival blankets under each seat next to the life jackets

    I think an outline of the state of Alaska or at least the West coast would be appropriate.

    here is an idea, i'm going to get boooed but i'm drunk enough that it doesn't matter. how about, an all white fuselage with the outline of the state of alaska on the tail with plain "alaska" titles in times new roman on the front fuselage over the windows.....


    how's my spelling?

    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    I think their paint is fine, not the most exciting but not the most boring either. I would love to see them do a retro jet on one of their birds. However the last thing on AS's mind should be their paint, they need to get their SEA ramp operations fixed first, what a cluster **** operation that is! That's what happens when you hire piss poor contract workers and can your own staff!

    I actually just did a quick mock up of an Alaskan Igloo Plane...don't know how well that would work....looks a little too busy.

    Also, I know they're special ones, but aren't we forgetting the Disney schemes? There are a few of those, not just the Tinkerbell one, right?
