I like the livery on the Air Portugal plane. It has a lot of colors and that rocks looks funny.

Yes that first one is a very nice, orignal idea, When I’m sitting on an aircraft, I always wonder what part of the livery is actually on the outside next to my window. Sometimes I can work it out by counting the number of windows, but I still find it interesting!

The eyes are drawn to the two rear windows. That rock? looks more like comic boy Calvin having been squashed by his tiger Hobbes 😉 (The human mind is strange, isn’t it?) I bet it looked better in the computer :p

This A319 is named “Eusébio” a portuguese football star of the 60’s and also this livery is intending to promote Portugal taking opportunity of a major international event we’ll be hosting next June, the Euro 2004 football championship.

I have seen that done on vans where they paint cars onto it. Great idea to do it on a plane!!!
