yeah i agree with all of you about it was agood think but some of the designs where terrible as i have said in my other post.
😀

Also it represented what one of BA’s claim to fames is – the worlds favourite airline!

I agree. Total disregard and arrogance toward the worlds variety of cultures and ethnic Groups.

Its exactly that kind of closed mindedness that got the utopia tails ditched.

The Utopia scheme was an inspirational scheme, using art from culture all over the world. From a shantii town in south africa to a sky scraper in new york, from 5 year olds to 90 year old, artists from all walks of life and all ages contributed.

They portrayed beautifull native art from all of the globe.

calling them a mess is closed minded and, to put it simply p!sses me off. I consider such remarks to be racist and typical anti cultural.

I agree… whilst I particularly enjoy the design of the Chatham Dockyard/Lord Nelson flag on the tails. I found the breadth and wealth of design on show amongst the world tails to be a really positive step in helping to make BA’s image one of a global airline.

I remember the press shots of Mrs “the bitch” Thatcher covering up the tail of a model 747 with a handkerchief and was instantly reminded of why the concept of “Britishness” is considered to be so repugnant by so many around the world.

A really narrow minded and tacky stunt I remember thinking at the time.

yeah it was the Thatchers but she only hated the DELFTBLUE DAYBREAK.
take a look at this hehehehe
Critics

You have to admit it was an ugly design look….. yuk

I think it was Mrs. T… quite probably the only thing I agree with her about… :rolleyes:

It was the queen who did’nt like them, was’nt it?

I think the World cs tails were all brilliant. They made a trip to LHR slightly more interesting. When BA already dominate Heathrow so much, it was nice to see a bit of variation between the planes.

I like the Chelsea Rose tail

i like some like:
Colum

Animals and trees

Wings

Rendezvous

Waves and Cranes

Chelsea Rose:

But some where terrible like:
Golden Khokloma

Koguty Lowickie

Youm-al-Suq

my fave has to be Colum though, i think its just a fantastic design.
but i think they have made the right choice in keeping
Union Flag.

i missed the Landor scheme of BA

Looks fine on the airbus

Britannia
Snbrussels Airlines, looks smart on the A319 but not on the RJ85.
