Bah!
Regardless, it looks amazing I think. The scheme keeps looking better and better on the larger aircraft.

Wow... I don't like it as much as I thought I would!!! I give it a distinct B!!
It looks better on the 757 and A320.
I think it accentuates the oddly-shaped nose of the A330/340.
The old colors looked more majestic on this bird!!!
Oh well, it is certainly better than some other liveries out there on the 330.

Though I do agree with you, I think the angle of which the photo is shot at is also helping that along. There is another photo from today that doesn't seem to show off the awkward nose as much and it looks great!

Well done Carlos, I dont have a break to visit SJU because I was working but thanks for the upload and also Carlos Aleman that took a shot of it. Now I have a visual idea of how it looks.... In my personal opinion I really don't like it too much, the 762's looks better with that sheme.
At least is better than the old dark/blue peeling paint....

It does look decent, but I have other favorites on the A330. Give me a red tail A330 any day.
Everybody says the new livery on this plane is the best blah blah blah, why bother saying that if you know your perceptions will change over time? Same thing goes with new liveries.

I liked the older c/s better on the A330, to be honest...but maybe it is one of those times where it will grow on me or I need to see it in person...

25 Gilesdavies: LOL - There is going to be a lot of disappointed spotters at MAN tomorrow morning then! I bet all the MAN spotters are by now in bed, and have set th
27 PHLBOS: On the US 757 winglets and on the E-jets, there's a little bit of red on top of the winglet similar to the tail. I'm assuming that US did similar on
35 SLCUT2777: That will sum it up nicely! Just think of how one of the soon to be discarded AC A340s will look in this livery! China route or not, I do see US pick
36 Captaink: I love it.. I think it looks really swell on the 330. In fact I prefer the new colours on the 330 than the old. Before - unusal and pretty spiffy look
37 Charger: Maybe I'm missing something but to me it's just another boring white plane. Oh well, to each thier own.
38 PM: Got to go with Charger on this one. Sorry, but this is a lousy colourscheme. All it needs is an airline name in cyrillic for it to look like one of t
39 Captaink: You missing the blue and red tail, the blue and red striped bottom of the fuselage and the cool wavy thing at the back.. LOL You see it now? What do
40 DeltaRules: Ehh...I don't like it as much as I thought I would. Red stripe on the winglet might help it. That said, I'll probably grow to like it, as happened wit
41 FelixSJU: I was talking with the guy that took the photo and he told me it dont have red on wingleds. Proably they will add it later.
42 David21487: I'm not a big fan either. It doesn't look horrible or anthing, but I much prefer the older colors on the A330.
43 Mah584jr: I saw her today at PHL. The plane looks really good from a distance, but close up it's kinda...dull. The winglets are all blue from what I remember. S
44 ReguPilot: I also think the old livery was the greatest ever. It doesn't look bad but, it's not the same. It even looks like a different plane. The old livery wa
45 Flyorski: The new paint scheme looks great on the A330...... I think the 767 looks better though.............
46 RootsAir: Wow, amazing looking livery on an amazing plane! This livery suits well the A330's !
47 EDDL: What's the Sunday schedule after todays CDG leg? Phil / EDDL
48 EI321: Im sorry but that is a dreadfully dated looking livery!
49 Solnabo: No no no Youré wrong BMIbaby733, My Travel c/s looks like a washing powder carton Micke//
50 Logos: I can't argue with you there. Personally, I think the current livery is the best US has ever had and that is easily one of the best looking 330's out
51 STJ: Would agree the NW silver bullet still #1 in my book.
52 USAIRA330: This new scheme does look good, but old scheme looked so much better. i agree definatly needs the red on the winglet! others have said it already and
53 September11: Nice paint finish. How long in paint shop?
54 Morvious: I did not like the first 767 pictures when I saw them here but when I saw it in real I loved it. The light that reflects on this fueselage is just gre
55 Charger: didn't miss anything, thanks. Boring white with a bit of blue and red. Big Whoop. Boring......
56 Miamix707: The new US colors are starting to grow on me lately. I hated them at first, cause of the dull blue tail and bottom fuselage is just too overused. I th
57 MIAMIx707: BTW, where was this painted? What route does the 330s fly out of SJU?
58 FelixSJU: It flew back to PHL. Today is flying PHL-CDG.
59 Mah584jr: Here's another shot of her rotating off of 27L on 3/9/07, her first revenue flight to SJU. Couldn't have asked for a clearer sky.
60 DL Widget Head: I think it looks fantastic! Kudos to the US team for serving up a winner.
61 Captaink: The 330 usually does a daily PHL/SJU/PHL run, usually filled with cargo. I was kinda joking when I mentioned the things you possibly missed. :P
62 SixtySeven: Great paint job. Sort of reminds me of another beauty scheme by Lan Chile which I think is a little classier. Either way it's a nice looking scheme.
63 StarCityFlyr: If you like a clown looking plane...yep, you've got it on that one.
65 Jaysit: Looks like a cheap budget charter carrier from the 1980s. Absolutely ghastly.
66 Captaink: If that looks like a cheap budget carrier, what about the other airlines around with even less color? DL, CO, B6 etc are not exactly airlines with br
67 Jaysit: Its not an issue of being "bright." CO and B6 actually have great schemes. Very iconic. DL one can take or leave. But this US Airways thing what with

69 Waleckdaddy: That looks great! I don't know about the best 330 livery out there... but surly a candidate. We'll have to ask ourselves the same question a couple ye
70 DZ09: Those colors are fit for a presidential plane (Air force one). Great looking plane.

I don't like it. If forced to between old and new colours, I'd have to choose the older colour scheme
