vertigho Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 A few shots of the nostalgic battleship grey livery. I know many didn't care for it but it's a personal favorite of mine. Dare I say my favorite airline livery ever...? Took a quick hop from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. Grabbed a couple shots over what I believe is Mt. San Antonio. Hope you all enjoy. :) http://i1376.photobucket.com/albums/ah34/vertighoBGS/2141b035-26b4-47e6-b49b-1baa98104c19_zps6f0af38c.png http://i1376.photobucket.com/albums/ah34/vertighoBGS/a3cd2725-8b32-45c0-85f4-947c2c853417_zps978e415a.png http://i1376.photobucket.com/albums/ah34/vertighoBGS/8f0e97f2-a849-4cd9-b7da-217c13abbf78_zps3ec309f9.png http://i1376.photobucket.com/albums/ah34/vertighoBGS/665b27c1-35c6-48d9-9ddc-5ae402a251ec_zps47ad3af5.png http://i1376.photobucket.com/albums/ah34/vertighoBGS/38261187-8b2d-4ae6-8e41-a67507939553_zps5554c066.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vertigho Posted January 10, 2015 Author Share Posted January 10, 2015 Thanks for all the kind comments, everyone! Have only been here a short time but I can already sense the nice atmosphere to this forum. :) miss that livery! When I was younger (back in the mid-to-late '90s) was when I did the majority of my flying. I normally was on a United flight which would explain my infatuation with the Battleship Grey livery. I know it was at its peak from the early-to-mid '90s through the early 2000s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sampa Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Still see a few of them on United Express propliners over here in Fresno, but they have mostly been replaced by the ugly(in my opinion) Continental/United Merger colors... 1+1=cow :p "WE jumped out a WINdow!" -Baymax (from Big Hero 6) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTweak Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 All my early memories of UAL planes, and they are numerous since dad was a pilot for them for many many years, are from the mid-late 60's, just a tad before the dull grey scheme. Back then, they were the great red-white-and-blue scheme. That to me will always be THE UAL paint scheme. I have never liked (my father either, truth be known) any of the ones after that. But hey, that's just me :) Pat☺ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out! I guess I better not do that again! Sgt, USMC, 10 years proud service, Inactive reserve now :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
