    It matches in Germany maybe... :)

    Seriously, it doesn't match, but its muted. We're not talking Southwest here... :)

    But they d Match,
    Grey (almost) a Neutral color :) Put it next to any color and it will not clash. Besides its a PLANE! :)....You have to have grey somewhere.
    Its one of the last remaining old school looking schemes out there. It will be sad to see it go. Wether or not I like it Its better than most of this new trash we are seeing now put on planes. The worse old school scheme is much better than the best new colorschems out there...in my opinion.

    Having some "protective gray" is one thing, but LTU's current scheme does notmatch.

    Two color combos that people think match but do not:

    - Red and gray

    - Pink and black

    Do not wear these colors.

    First shot of the new livery: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1194779/L/

    I was not impressed in the beginning but now I'm starting to like it. The forward fuselage looks way too dull but the tail design is more modern and gives the scheme a fresh look. NOW fix the boring front LTU!

    She's still doing test flights in Toulouse but the race to get her here is on!

    The tail seems reminiscent of TAP and some others to me.

    LTU made few adjustments and in my opinion improvements to the new livery. It looks much better: http://www.skyliner-aviation.de/viewpho ... picid=3805

    it just looks like they switched the colors to different positions, believe me, the world would end if American Airlines changes their livery

    Well, then I guess we should prepare for the world to end sometime after 2011. :roll:

    This new LTU livery is horrible, and possibly worse than Delta's.

    Looks fresh and well revived and much better than the original rough draft. It will be tough to see less and less of the now old LTU livery however.

    Just to add LTU is going through a rebranding after the recent take over by Air Berlin-they are also going to refresh their brand by changing their livery.

    There are more chances now to catch the new colors at JFK during the week.

    Now:

    D-ALPA
    D-ALPB
    D-ALPC
    D-ALPD (went to the paintshop today)
    D-ALPI

    Leaving in the old colors:

    D-ALPE
    D-ALPG
    D-ALPH

    However today D-ALPE operated LT1550/1551. :lol:

    No A330-300s have been painted yet.
