:rofl: It is Cubana! I actually like the titles and "crest", but the tail is awful, sorry. I feel like doing a Lady Thatcher and covering it with a handkerchief :lol:

One problem I do have with the tail is the subtle tining within the blocks has failed and leave it looking like they need another coat of paint. *-)

not overly impressed with it as a design goes, i like the idea but personally id have gone a step further. silver paint with the american flag almost draped on the tail, but i do have a big thing for 1950's Americana.

I think seeing it in person will be needed before making a final judgement, but I do feel comfortable stating it's much nicer than the livery United came up with post merger.
