Question Loganair. :( so long BA, Hello flybe :)
I know there is quite a few people form America and the rest of the world on here, but i thought i share this with you. I work at Glasgow Airport as a Dispater for loganair, well servisair but the handel them. British airways have lost the
franchise deal with loganair, and its now franchised with flybe. But im not to sure if i like the flybe colors on the SF340, Maybe its because im to used to seeing the BA colors. What do u guys think?

Alex

I'm wanting to do that Island hop in the Orkneys, so as long as there is a plane, I'm not bothered either way

I actually quite like the livery of Flybe on the Saab. However the BA Scheme did look better. But i guess the flybe will keep growing on me.

Flybe looks a bit cramped. BA has the nicest scheme that I have seen on one of those saabs. NWA's colorse on them are crap, in my opinion

I quite like it, but it would be better in Loganair's own scheme, like the BA146's used to be in the late 80's

Both schemes are highly attractive.

All the best to you with your Dispatch job at flybe.

You said a mouthful; the worst. I flew through Detroit awhile back and noticed them kinda everywhere. Just plain ugly.

Ewww, lemme go puke... the red color is designed to be on the tail, not the fuselage.

clearly someone was asleep at the wheel when they designed this scheme.

The newer one look a bit better, but the red tail is the size of a postage stamp. Saw a drawing a little while back, not sure if there are any actually flying.

Turns out there aren't any. What a waste of a perfectly beautiful aircraft.
