Word late last week is that you and virtually every other person out there who actually remembered the old AL planes thought the same thing. Therefore, HP/US has made the remarkable decision to make repaint amendments to this a/c in a few weeks. Hard to imagine --- as you know, they ended up rebolding the PSA smile on the first heritage a/c since it was just way too thin.

As much as I really like this airline nodding to its heritage, I am dismayed that they seem to have missed the mark on each of the two a/c launched thus far.

In any case, now the PS plane is fixed and in a few weeks the AL plane will be. With any luck, they'll not screw up the PI plane.
