I know I will probably be the only one here saying that I don't really like that much Kingfisher's livery, the kingfisher is great, but I don't think it really fits best on a red background. I prefer the boring TAM livery on the A345, but anyways the shot is great and the A345 can just be beautiful.
Thanks IT for allowing us to see more of these beauties flying.

BTW the AirAsia A320 is great, a very messy livery if you want but something new an unusual for spotters and that makes for nice catches.

Ciao
Joe

I have to agree. Wow!  wideeyed  I'm going to have to admit that its the first time I loved an A340 livery. Wow!  cloudnine  I might just book a flight on that plane later this year!  bigthumbsup

The A345 is sweeeeetttt but the other plane looks like a F1 car - but I guess that's what happens when you have to make up a livery based on the several (possibly colour/style clashing) advertisements - witness last year's Renault abomination of a livery!

That A320 looks pretty nice with the helmet design on the front. But somehow, the sponsor logos look a way overloaded.

I'm wondering, why is there no Nakajima helmet on the bird? Maybe he's not that popular.

The Kingfisher looks fantastic and elegant. Wonder what the interior will look like, especially the first class cabin.
Also understand this airline has very beautiful cabin crew. Every flight will be sold out !!  Smile

Pretty A340-500. Will this one be leased to AI soon? If so, why is it painted in Kingfisher colours?
Ugly A320. What a blind fool "designed" that Logojet?

I think by August, it will fly BLR-SFO non-stop. Isn't that what Dr. Mallya suggested???


come fly with me

Referring to Dr. Mallya, they will use the A/C on routes to North America. Propably Vancouver, but AFAIK they still need the rights to serve the desired routes.

But where will the A/C be based. I guess in BOM, or DEL (?).

Unfortunately there's no chance, but I would love to that bird in FRA.

Could someone answer a question about the Kingfisher G-II'(s) for me? How many do they have? I saw one at TUS today (sorry, no pic, and I'm regretting that now) but the only G-II to leave during that time was N4UB, not the reg of the one in the database here, which is VP-CUB. Extremely good looking jet though!
