New Livery?

Anyone have any info on this? Is it just waiting to get painted or is this something that we could see in the future? Regardless, I really like it!!

It is a "special" tail for the FlyFi install, similar to the old Blackberry/Yahoo plane they had a while back. Part of the plane "name" "Connected to blue" includes "blue" spelled in binary and the tail is covered with ones and zeroes.

Some better pictures here: http://instagram.com/p/n1mWtKkSr3/.

Np. They put out the official press release this morning with a full-size rendering and a better tail shot. I'll try to share/embed when not on mobile.

I really like it. Do you know if they are planning to keep it temporary or for good?

All special liveries are subject to change. My guess is that this one sticks around until they have to repaint it anyways, at which point they'll figure out what's next. I would not expect to see it disappear in a couple months or anything like that.
