I also like NKs bumble bee look only because it's different.

Not from me. Air China is one of the last old school cheatline liveries out there. If a livery has swoops and swooshes, I hate it. Give me a BOAC VC-10 over Wunala Dreaming any day.

I agree with you there, as the color palette is great. It also matches the Cascadia flag, as you fly lol. I think that these shades of green and blue and a bit of gold would look better in another arrangement, but Uzbekistan Airlines is what we have to settle on right now. I used to watch the Uzbekistan 763's climb out of JFK, trailing smoke like a 727. No other airline's 763's smoked like those did. I think they stopped in Tallinn, Estonia on their way to Tashkent. Not sure if the 787's still make that stop or not.

But honestly, its clean, simple, professional and efficient - in other words, its very German.

I'm just happy they brought back the Tsurumaru which was absent from the previous livery.
