I'd love to see the retro liveries as US has done, changing just the tail. They should give only 1 to each DL (old widget) and NW (? the old plain red tail is dumb, so either bowling shoe tail or most recent), to keep the number of special ones out there limited given . Then Herman of course and the Western W. Any others?
NW, Western, Chicago and Southern, PanAm, Southern, Republic, North Central, and I know there are more.

No as diagnosed by medical professionals. I happen to have a child who is Autistic and it is no laughing matter. I just sat through a 3 hour meeting with the school district deciding what is placement should be for next year.

Why stop there? They could have a "Tribute to Jawjah" livery with the Calvin-peeing sticker, Confederate flag, "Hunker Down" written across the underside of the wings, tobacco-juice streaks descending from the cockpit window, and rubber testicles dangling from the tail cone.

Ok, I'll take the bait:
A 757-300 with Pinocchio on the tail with his nose strectching to the cockpit window with "Sky Miles - Best In Class" emblazoned across the fuselage.
I'm a big fan of understatement.

I like the idea of a Vikings livery. It might help molify some of us alientated midwesterners and (in light of the impending UA/CO merger), nothing screams "We're number 2!" quite like proudly displaying the purple.

How about featuring different charity organizations on different planes and then donating a % of revenue flown on that plane to the charity and/or taking up passenger collections on those flights? Choose maybe 4-6 different and each paint lasts for a year and then new groups are chosen. Let passengers vote online or on board for the groups they would like to see and majority rules.

Woodford Reserve or something funny like Kulula's.
