Thanks for pointing us to that one, Montenegro. I must say it's a nice tail design and the titles on the fuselage will probably tend to catch the eye.
Not bad at all, eh?
Best regards,
TriStar.
PS: Montenegro, do you need SN-postcards for your collection? I could get you nine different ones:
Avro RJ85
Avro RJ100 (Anniversary Colours)
B737
B747
A340
A340 (new colours)
A321 (new colours)
two different "Brussels Airport" ones.
Let me know if you're interested.

It resembles the SriLankan Livery. May be the strategic partners hired the same graphic designer.
To TriStar: If you have spare SN postcards other than what you have promised to Montenegro I would like to have them. email me on chanaka@mailexcite.com

Hmm. Looks a bit on the plain side to me. I don't much care for this all-white fuselage and billboard look, with an emblem on the tail. It lacks imagination.

Yes it is just like SriLankans. The same stylised writing on the fuselage and the tail design is more "flowing" like the one they designed for SriLankan.

Gee, it's true. The Emirates livery does look quite a lot like that of Air Lanka.
I tend to agree with Ilyushin96M on the white body thing, but I do think the Emirates tail looks kind of neat, running down into the fuselage, so to speak. I know it's been done before (plenty of times), but that doesn't mean it can't look good, right?
Then again, an aircraft with a full colour livery will often look quite nasty, as well. True, you can't blame them of being dull, but there's more to it than that, I'd say... At least there is, to me.
BTW AirLanka (the forum user - not the airline, heh), an e-mail is on the way.
