Yep look at US Airways retros! They left out Mohawk I think due to political correctness.
The Closest you will come to those is Aero Mexico and the airline with a similar look to Continental with the gray bottom. Have forgotten the name at the moment!

Ah yes, but even you sir are caught up in this PC revolution. It's not Native-Americans, it's American Indian. Believe it or not, the Indians of this country prefer the latter. But because Indian might have a savage ring to it, someone in the Government came up with this "soooothing" Native American crap. By the way, before us whitefolk came here it wasn't called America. So how can they be "Native Americans". Technically, the first borns of the settlers should be called Native Americans.....Interesting huh?

Yes the ever changing English language... Native American, Indian, savage, American Indian, who the hell cares? Someone does, cause you might step on toes if you use the wrong one. Angry, nope. Just the usual frustration with PC names.

BTW the Indian from the University of Illinois was the latest logo to bite the dust.
