So, I'm thinin'... If for some reason, Frontier ended up buying Continental...

What would their DC-10's look like?

Hope you can share some of that artistic love!

Well, they'll probably start with a hybrid scheme, basically just adding their title in place of Continental's. Then it'll be a full repaint. This one has an egret on its tail and a small "Operated by Continental" sticker since the company still exists and operating as a subsid of Frontier

Let's not forget the the current Frontier is a wholly different airline than the one that Continental bought out in 1986. If we are to look at the question of livery when Frontier was bought out, the picture below shows what its livery was.

Continental had the "meatball" livery at the time of the purchase of Frontier.

So if we are playing the what if, we should use these liveries.
