Re: Rumor: British Airways to paint 4 aircraft in retro livery

I was told from a normally reliable source that BA have two 744's heading to DUB in the next few weeks for a paint job. This isn't to say they'll be in any special livery, but just that they are getting a lick of paint. Although BA do some of their painting in DUB anyway, so it wouldn't be unusual ...

Re: TAP Air Portugal slight livery mod?

I wonder what’s going on with the big inconsistency of the painting of the winglets/sharklets too? TAP’s first A320neo was delivered with the sharklets painted on both sides: 5005249 Since then they’ve been changed to (very boring in comparison!) grey. 5241937 Some of the A330’s and E190’s in the fl...

Re: BA LHR Paint Shop

As mentioned, BA chose to close TBK. IAG already use DUB, FCO and MAD for repainting so I guess it wasn't cost effective to have several different paint hangars. On the subject of repainting, BA will repaint a further 24 aircraft into Union Flag with Crest/White this year (1 A318, 8 A319s, 2 A320s a...
