Looks like something Harrison Ford playing the president would fly in.

Because our President represents America locally and around the world, he travels with a large group of useful people plus a bunch of journalists, so flying southwest in coach is probably out. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

Quoted: Modern planes have a lot of composite bits and pieces. All those need to be painted. Polished airplanes are also a total pain in the ass as far as upkeep goes. To the guy who said paint the top all red. On an area that big, white paint is a shit ton lighter in weight, cooler in temp, and cheaper. View Quote |

I like it. The sky blue theme always seemed too basic and childlike to me.

Should be Krylon primer gray like all the other USAF planes.
|

The white and the navy blue look good, the red is too maroon. Needs to be old glory red.
|

Needs a painting on top to look like Romney inside a dog kennel strapped to the back of the plane.

Absolutely terrible, looks like some basic second-tier airline. It looks like it could be the default 747 in X-plane or some other game.
Could we maybe get an actual graphic designer involved? AF1 should be stunning, something that represents the excellence of America. It also needs to look superior to the planes every other peasant-class country shows up in for the UN general assembly. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_transports_of_heads_of_state_and_government |

Looks good to me. Probably reasonably priced, which is even better. I think it looks OK. Same as old livery, looks OK. Would be cool to see it with no paint and just polished aluminum. |

I like it and love it even more because libs crying it looks like Trump's plane scheme
I never was a fan of the sissy sky blue. I know they say it's supposed to be harder to see but is that actually true or even valid in todays high tech world |

I somehow missed the gold stripe at first.
On the second view, I really do like it. I can’t say it’s better than the current, but it’s about as good....just different. |

President Trump revealed the new proposed paint scheme to be used on the new Air Force One 747-800s. I think it looks like a 2nd tier airline. What do you guys think? https://media.breitbart.com/media/2019/06/AP_19171608501985-1024x615.jpg View Quote |

I like that it has liberals and such upset, but honestly I like the current livery better.
ETA - I feel like the new livery says "TRUMP!" more than it says America. |

As long as the new paint scheme is easier to apply and maintain than the current one I'm OK with it. Looking forward to the day that "Robins Egg Blue" is purged from the PAGs inventory.

The blue is too dark and the red looks more like maroon.
Definitely not an improvement over the current paint scheme. |

Why not keep the top, and replace the baby blue bottom with red? The layout has become sort of iconic, but the colors could use a tweak. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
