New special livery unveiling tomorrow [23 Oct 2013]




http://blog.jetblue.com/index.php/20...is-on-its-way/

Like all New Yorkers, we have a special place in out hearts for the brave men and women of the New York City Fire Department. In fact, many of them are family; around 250 of our crewmembers are former FDNY!

As a company, we are proud to support the FDNY Foundation - the official not-for-profit of the FDNY established to promote Fire Safety in New York City and the professional development, training, and education of members of the FDNY.

To honor these great men and women and our support for the FDNY Foundation, we’re introducing a beautiful new custom paint job on one of our A320s and will show it off by flying it along the West side of Manhattan Wednesday morning. We’re calling it “Blue Bravest” but the one thing we’re not doing is telling you what it looks like ahead of time!
Looks like the NYC OEM published the photo this afternoon, a bit early. Whoopsie.

ETA: NYC OEM has pulled the tweet but the image is still online.

A composite I grabbed this morning from the flyby up the Hudson. Should get more shots at the JFK event this afternoon.

Pretty. A very nice tribute to those who run INTO burning buildings to get other people OUT.

But I can't help but wonder - did the low-altitude flyby cause mass hysteria and hundreds of 911 calls, as the low-altitude space shuttle flyby did a few year ago?
