Funny and interesting for those of us interested in aviation. If I saw that plane at the gate I'd probably look over all the markings just for fun because it would be interesting. Then the average person who doesn't know nor care probably doesn't know nor care about whatever the livery is, as long as they get on the right plane.

Yeah I know what you mean, that 1 looking out the window is always me aswell.
Quoting 7673mech (Reply 9): I think some of it is an attempt at humor also.
I think its just for a laugh too, I doubt it is some sort of "aviation educator".

I love it! Especially the markings for the "black box". But then again I do have a rather morbid, sardonic, twisted, sick sense of humor.
