Re: Air India transfer to Tata complete

The existing livery of AI is superb. Much better than LH or any other carriers with blue and white in vogue. The Centaur livery scheme is equally unique. Besides livery other aspects could be worked upon.

So is it that very aircraft that got detached from the crane? This aircraft which I keep seeing daily is in fresh AI colours( as far as the tail section goes ) as I could only see the tail/aft section of the plane.
