Going from this to the new ugly thing and Delta going from....well anything they had before the burning widget to the burning widget are two of the saddest changes in airline colors ever.

At Indianapolis. I probably flew that plane. Note the passenger briefing card as a sun shade in the co-pilot’s top window...

yep! I scored many rides as a standby with my dad as F/O.  He told me he almost went with Eastern in '69 but chose Delta instead.  Flew the 727 onto the seniority list first page as I recall. Then went to the Tri-Star until retired.  That low thrumm-hum of the L10-11 with just a little throttle bump was a sweet sound.

I always liked this United paint scheme.  Another one that I think is cool is Air New Zealand.

I was an F/E on the L1011.  I flew international flights.  The lower galley was an interesting place.....

+1 for TWA, always liked flying them. Old AA was good too but it’s such a shitty airline it can’t get a positive vote

I am no expert, but it looks like a lot of 1011’s in this thread.
