RE: Delta's New Livery?

Delta have single handedly managed to produced some of the most disgusting liveries in aviation history and then worsen them every time they are 'replaced' with yet another new livery, only worse. <img src="/discussions/graphics/smilies/spit.gif" alt="spit" border=0> If they are about to...
