The new one looks alright, but I still think they should put wings on it again.

I think they should go retro and bring out the old 747sp liveries that'd look great

I agree with you Scon- when compared, the new one looks like a cheap chinise rip off. The new font writing especially looks rubbish!

Not sure I like the new font either...

Also, am I the only one that thinks the new logo has a touch of "Maori Carving"-ness to it?? unsure.gif

This is just one big publicity stunt, this is barely a change at all, I know that it will be forever a classic livery but, i am bored of it, I was really expecting a move away from euro white.

10 points for the person who can tell me the 'real' reason why the logo was changed...

HINT: its actually a fairly stupid reason... but well that's just the typical french being difficult winkyy.gif

Looks a bit more like a wallaby than a kangaroo really, at least when compared to the old tail - thats what I think. winkyy.gif

It dosn't look so bad in real life, actually the tail in the front looks like quite a nice improvement.
