    Swiss to Paint New "Flower Power" Livery A340

    For their new ZRH-SFO service beginning June 2nd, could make some appearances at JFK, I'm sure...

    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    its amazing to think they'll actually put paint on an airplane...
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Looks like a subway car in the Bronx with wings to me. Better than all euro white though. Just get rid of the eye thing. That creeps me out!
