Drew,

I have nothing but seething hatred for US Air... I grew up as a Piedmont brat and will never forget how US Air screwed over Piedmont... Don't even get me started on what they (US Air) did to PSA...

Good luck "taking off" with the thrust reversers deployed.......

Nice what if, though.

Arrow Was hoping for tail markings similar to 733,734, and 762ER!
That would have look great.

Thumbs up Very Cool
But if PIEDMONT was still around do you think that their scheme would be the same or changed? Could someone do a New scheme for them?

Blasphemy! To think an All- American airline like PI would have DARED buy Airbusses! Although USAir did it I suppose.....
Nice work on the photo though, how are you guys doing these?

Unfortunately I fear that the livery would have eventually changed. I always thought the PI scheme, like the Delta widget, would have still looked quite up to date even now.
