Now THIS looks good. Vietnam Airlines has painted their first A350 in the new livery:

I agree. Thumbs Up to Vietnam Airlines for their choice of livery on their newest airframe. This will definitely stand out amongst the euro-white paintjobs at every airport this bird flies into. Bravo! T7
I completely agree with the above posts - absolutely stunning (will be better still with engines)!! I would say this will be the most beautiful A350 so far.
Now do I take it in 1:400 or 1:200 I ask myself - when the time comes obviously??
Looks excellent, there was talk of it possibly coming to HKG on a few rotations for crew training purposes later in the year, so hopefully that pans out and I can get some photos of it.
I LOVE that livery. That being said, the A350 looks....meh. They should've taken the A330/A340 nose and put it on the A350, would've made it 100% prettier.

Come to think of it,why didn't they do that? It must have occurred to them?

It must of, maybe they found some advantages to this design, I really don't know. Oh well, it will probably grow on me once I start seeing it in person.

The A350 is also called A350XBW (Xtra Wide Body). That means it has a wider and higher fuselage than the A300/A310/A330/A340 family. That would have lead to a 777/767 cockpit style and i doubt that this would have looked prettier.. As the A350 cockpit is related to the newest design of the A380 and has many improvements compared to the A330/A340 cockpit, it made no sense to use the old one. To me the A350 is the most beautiful next generation aircraft, but i am also glad that we'll see the great old Airbus widebody face with the A330neos for years to come..
