Well it's so boring I didn't look at it long enough to fully register it's colors.
Having said that the days of any interesting color schemes is dead in aviation. Large titles that identify the brand and a logo on the tail. What's more important is that price the pax see on the internet when they go looking for tickets.

Also SQ ULH 359 after good work rate seems also at rest! TLS summer holidays not that distant so increased work rates needed or are we seeing a very fundamental production slow down as orders soften and carriers need to slip deliveries to cope with 787 and RR problems plus of course Airbus own Neo bottlenecks
