I'm looking forward to it. I loved the old livery on the old B707.

If the list of issues was only as long as your arm, LY would be in decent shape

Personally I would have found it far cooler and nostalgic had they repainted one of the 747s.

Would love to see the engines painted as well (as it was on the 757s)

The plane wears the original livery. I must say I am a bit disappointed as I was hoping for the livery of the ‘90s with the 2 tones of blue.
