Here's a real life photo. No idea what the blue is doing:

Are there any resources or links where we can find which birds have been repainted?

So far B-KPM is the only one. But I hear, the next one to be painted is an -467ERF.

Even though B-KPD is in XMN, its the for other maintenance activities as its been painted not too long ago.

Also, I've seen unreleased photos of the A350 after it being painted. I have to say that the stripe really looks good on the A350!

Looks particularly drab on the A350. The brush wing is really out of proportion.

I'm not sure what the necessity to have the brush wing at the front is (perhaps because its there on the old livery?). Same height and aligned with the Cathay would have been better (i.e. the logo!) - but then the bird would be flying backwards on one side of the a/c... my preference would have been no brush wing other than on the vertical stabiliser, which I think looks fantastic. Never liked the red stripe, it looked like faded paint to me.

I guess like all these things, they will start to look normal after a while.

Some photos of CX's second A350 (B-LRB) have been taken by a spotter.

Would expect B-KPN to be next 77W in line for a paint job but not so far.

I think I heard a rumour about a freighter being next.
