And it just hit me that this logo change will cost me too I am almost done collecting models of the entire JAL fleet and now I have to restart from scratch because they have a new marking

I wonder what's going to happen to the 787's currently in assembly line. They have painted some of them already. Maybe Boeing will repaint it for JAL (as part of the penalty? ). I just bought a 1:200 787-8 model, if they end up repainting the 787 before delivery, I will never see a real 787 in that marking at all

But the good thing is there's less plane type now. It will save me a few thousand yens I guess. Now I have to find more places to hide the planes at home
