The one that they are unveiling should be different. They recently purchased two all passenger 737 aircraft. I think that the plan is to have a different tail design on each machine. The one being unveiled in YZF should be the second one.

The one in the above link was the first one and it is staying in YOW.

The bad part is the new paint job will slowly be smeared away by the ever leaking Skydrol from the rudder actuators.....sigh

Actually you can see the new tail design on their webite.

Not too bad at all. It will be interesting to see what else they come up with on their aircrafts.

It might be peeled away but it shouldn't be smeared away. They are big stickers not paintings.

I saw the Northern Lights tail at the next gate in YEG and it looks great.

Have already seen some chunks of the Norhtern lights tail decal missing... wonder if it was maintenance's doing?

It is a great looking graphic though!

Not only is it great looking, but I will bet it is industry leading in terms of seat pitch for the cattle class.

could be...it could also be the rudder actuator weeping skydrol and causing the decal to shrink and peel off.

I really does look good though, the -200's in that liverly is awesome!!
