US A330 in AA Colours
I spotted one this morning parked at CDG T2A, first time I saw one in AA Colours. I assume it's the CDG-CLT or CDG-PHL. Is US dba AA receiving new A330s or have they started repainting their own planes ? I wonder when they'll start being used on pre-merger AA CDG sectors as an intermediary between 767/787s and 777s.

Almost all of US Air's A330s have been repainted. They will finish the repaint within the next few weeks. In fact, all of US Air's internationally configured fleet will be repainted by the end of next month. The goal was to have all transatlantic aircraft to be repainted for the Summer schedule.

According to this: https://sites.google.com/site/newame...airbus-330-200
9/9 A330-300's have been repainted in AA colors, and 12/15 of the A330-200's have been repainted. So almost all of them.

Oh, you meant the old US livery. Probably not.

You can track the progress of the fleet repaint at airliners.net. They have an entire thread on the status of both the AA and US fleets progress in moving to the new AA livery down to the individual plane level. They love tracking these things. Includes the regional fleet as well.
