    Bye Bye Max

    After almost 7 years of flying in the Peter Max scheme N77014 went into mx yesterday for a C-Check were he will be repainted into regular Continental colors.

    Unfortunately I've never gotten a decent picture of her the 11 times of I spotted him.

    It's a shame to see him go! :cry:

    Yeah too bad, the only time I saw him was on a climb out in a Co737 to ORD.

    Wow. Big loss of a very popular scheme. I, too, never got a photo.

    Me neither. But I think we were all huddled in the same car, going through NJ once, craning our necks up to catch a glimpse.
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    I remember when I shot it I tracked its movments for a whole week and then made my move. Killed it on the first 777 that flew past me :)
    Its to bad COA won't replace it with something just as snazzy.

    I remember walking by a bunch of angry CO passengers at NRT and later saw it broken down at the gate back in October while I was boarding DL 56 back to Atlanta. :mrgreen:

    Re: Bye Bye Max

    njgtr82, could I use your photo of the 2 777s for a thread on a.net? I'll make sure to credit it

    I never saw this one either, shame to me that's the best special scheme in a large US airliner maybe ever

    Saw her twice. First time in Frankfurt back in 2005 (pictured below), and second time in March of this year at IAH. Picture at IAH was ruined by heat haze :(
