US Airways invite to the festivites...http://www.justplanenews.com/PDF/LiveryFlyer_US_color.pdfThe aircraft will be making a US Tour as well with stops in:KPIT - Pittsburgh @ 9:30 AMKCLT - Charlotte @ 12:30 AMKLAS - Los Vegas @ 3:45 PMandKPHX - Phoneix @ 6:30PM All times local.Actually it's "Las" Vegas, not Los, I get a little sensitive, since it's my hometown, but no biggie, because you spelled "Phoenix" wrong as well. :-) Anyway, I was wondering how they decided that they would keep US Airways as the name and not America West? Is it because US Airways was much much larger?Jeff

*MUCH* nicer than the old one! I know every airliner these days seems to be white but the old all-dark fuselage colours looked odd to me. This new paintjob is nice and smart!PS:The link to how much it costs to paint an airplane is very interesting! Thanx!!:)

From the same cost article:"Was the hot weather in Phoenix and Las Vegas a factor in going with this color scheme?It certainly was. Many planes will be parked in two of the new airline
