Delta's first Airbus A330!

Here it is, a Northwest Airlines Airbus A330-300 painted in the new DL colours:

I still think the livery in general is horrible, so no matter what type of aircraft they paint it on, I don’t think it will ever look right to me?

I liked it in NWA colours, and like it just as much in DL colours!

I like it but then again I love the A330 in any scheme,I still think Delta should Adopt Billboard titles ‘A La’ Emirates.Especially for their larger fleet(744,330,777,767)

Does Airbus now list Delta Airlines as customer?

Make those damn titles bigger!

Like your signature, Tom? 😀

I agree actually, they could be a tad bigger. 🙂

I quite like it, too. 🙂

Likewise! There’s an elegent simplicity to it very much like the BA scheme. That said, it’s an A330. The damned thing could be totally nude and I’d still love it!

Just to be the exception that proves the rule… I really like this colour-scheme.

It’s a shame they didn’t keep their Northwest Orient livery!!!

100% agree with that!

Very bland. There’s a difference between keeping it simple and what they’ve got here. It’s just so boring – paint it back!!.

I think when one airline decides to obliterate all trace of another in a merger like this, then the dominant airline ought to have a decent livery in the first place. The new Delta livery is dull and unimaginative to say the least, and replaces a livery (NWA) that was the opposite.

Not great… I’d prefer a NWA 333 any day of the week!

Too bad Northwest wont be keeping their livery.
