Had a couple of visits to LHR last week.. first 2 taken from an industrial eastate near Faggs rd.

Then an early morning visit on saturday…great light with some menacing skies:
First up a Uninental B777!!! Is this what is happening to all the CO aircraft?
Looks very strange to see big “UNITED” titles on a COA aircraft.












That is all!

Yes agree about the titles… kinda looks like an interim measure.. and good on them saing money by not doing a costly rebrand at this time.
Agreed. I think that this is a transitional measure to save face for both carriers. There will be a completely re-brand within five years time.

Lovely shots, thanks for sharing.:)
Anyone have any idea what the PrivatAir B757 is doing at LHR…I’ve seen it quite a few times now and always wondered why its over here?
First up a Uninental B777!!!
Uninental…well thats certainly an interesting name, I wonder if that was ever on the list of suggestions for new names for the company!:D
Is this what is happening to all the CO aircraft?
Looks very strange to see big “UNITED” titles on a COA aircraft.
Yes, and yes it does look very strange upclose indeed, and personally I don’t like it, but its the cheapest option and it was considered that UA was the stronger brand name compared to CO, and CO’s design was a better livery than UA’s. Also, it would be rather hypocritical of the newly merged UA management to go spending vast sums of money on painting a brand new livery onto their planes seeing as the merger is/was all about saving money.
