Thank you for showing us an up close view of all those beautiful birds. I wish American Airlines would have never done away with that wonderful silver livery.✈️😊
Almost four years later and my view of this livery has evolved. Mostly because it's hard to let go of something you've known for a while, but I've managed to appreciate this livery more now; the silver paint without the stripes makes the fuselage look more "pure", while the "holographic" tail is certainly pleasing to look at /up close/ (doesn't have the same effect far away). The only mistake was getting rid of the double-A logo. Should've kept it and made the titles "AAmerican" stretch across the fuselage, colored or just the same gray would've worked. Still, the old-livery is still my favorite over the new one, although I like the new one better on 738s.
When this new livery was first introduced, it represented change for the better. This was when AA was putting in seatback screens, mood lighting, and other upgrades. 4 years later however, this livery also represented AA's fall-off because they did not change the livery when they introduced Project Oasis, when they formed the short-lived NEA that made AA look weak, and other downgrades. This livery once represented a golden era but it got ruined by also representing a downhill era that followed. This is the same effect for the Continental Globe livery that later got adopted by United.
This has grown on me. It has the newer look that a lot of foreign carriers have, but better. I really think this looks great now. The old livery was just that, old. Can't wait to see the new modern fleet painted in this livery
Very Very Nice.......!!!...sidenote:...I can't help but see.....the Almost perfect shade of "TWA Airline's RED" in its new livery.....!!!.....The perfect shade of 'RED'....will always belong ONLY to TWA...Airline's......the one True "Legacy Airline".....that was snuffed out....by Greed!!!!!........
I totally agree about the Greyhound bus look, especially the red and blue slash in the front. But flying is basically a bus experience these days, so maybe it's just truth in advertising.
There's something almost early '60's Retro about it. The age of jets, the classiness of air travel and similar images come to mind. Now if they would work on the "internals": the service and attitude of the 1960's to match this new livery, it will be one great proud airline again. By the way, that eagle looks terrific. Well done.
@herbergeen, grey all by itself would be dull and boring but a special silver mica finish was sprayed over it. American especially saw this combination effective for its forthcoming Boeing 787 Dreamliner fleet.
Thanks for posting all your videos. I, for one, love the new American livery. I'm glad it will be retained after the merger with US Airways (which hasn't completed repainting all its inventory after their last merger with America West in 2005). I just hope that American will get both fleets repainted fairly quickly.
Looks like red, white and blue piano keys on the tail! And yes, I agree, there is something very Greyhound bus lines about the new livery. Look at the eagle logo along the fuselage just back of the cockpit.
It looks good but when you are inside the airplane you are bombarded with the harsh engine sound. My friend james asquith was really screwed up by that noise.
I'm still trying to get used to the new livery. I like the "flight symbol"; I would like to see a shinier or more silver colored background and I still think the tail is a little much.
I would like to see MD-80 in new livery. MD-11 would look nice too in new American scheme. Too bad American wants to depart with all McDonnell Douglas aircraft.
At first I thought it was ugly, then it kind of grew on me so, screw it, it's not bad. I do have to say it seems like an awful expense to repaint a whole fleet of aircraft for both American and US Air.
Huh,the livery looks like...oh I don't know.. An old OneWorld member from Mexico. I think perhaps Mexicana de Aviacion's new livery before they went bankrupt?!
This I think is one of the better new liveries of the recent times. Airlines like JAL, Malaysia (both A330/737 and A380 versions) and Finnair went on a step backward with their bland, tasteless new liveries.
At first, I didn't like it...but as I see it now and considered what they did...a great looking livery...it's a compromise for the merger...but nicely done...at least they worked it...look how stupid it is to see a Continental tail on a United!
very beautiful enjoying video very interesting supper
Agreed. The colors on the tail are a bold yet refined while the rest of the aircraft is elegantly subtle. Its a fresh look and very "American".
Thank you for showing us an up close view of all those beautiful birds.
I wish American Airlines would have never done away with that wonderful silver livery.✈️😊
How wonderful all airplanes!! marvelous,I taken fun.......dots***

Especially on that A321T.
Yea I would like it more if they kept the AA Eagle 🦅

Love the fact the the rudder stands out more.
Great video,SB! The new look of AA & US Air!
beautiful job, SpeedbirdHD!! i think the new livery is rather good-looking. just wish they keep the eagle on it somewhere.
nice brothre my echrreBb nn
This new livery is very nice, I loved it! Very nice video!
You alive still...
The new american is a piece of beautiful art
amazing video!! compliments, the new livery is fantastic, the 767 seems bigger with the new livery than the old.
greetings from Rome
nice shots...thanks

the 1968 livery is so much classier. They should never have changed it.
American airlines is my favorite# fly American!✈🇺🇸
Absolutely awesome video!!!!!
I like the old design better
Great job!
Nice
Great Video as always, keep your work up!
I love the new AA livery!! Work of genius and a new modern look and logo!
Brilliant video....
Very Very Nice.......!!!...sidenote:...I can't help but see.....the Almost perfect shade of "TWA Airline's RED" in its new livery.....!!!.....The perfect shade of 'RED'....will always belong ONLY to TWA...Airline's......the one True "Legacy Airline".....that was snuffed out....by Greed!!!!!........
Well said my dear , how are you doing today ?
Hope you are good
Love the livery ❤️💙👌🏻
I totally agree about the Greyhound bus look, especially the red and blue slash in the front. But flying is basically a bus experience these days, so maybe it's just truth in advertising.
Beautiful airplane! The juxtaposed liveries @ 1:18 is a nice contrast of the past with the future. Great footage, as always.
Thanks again for your help America

nice :) island greetings
This logo looks more modern day. But old one was better
@jjouney, I agree, especially with the Boeing 787 Dreamliner scheduled to join American's fleet as early as next year.
Awesome video! I like the new livery very much! :)
@herbergeen, grey all by itself would be dull and boring but a special silver mica finish was sprayed over it. American especially saw this combination effective for its forthcoming Boeing 787 Dreamliner fleet.
bro American is my fav I just love those wings
As I was driving by the airport I saw the old American Airlines jet with the old familiar double a logo
Such a nice livery! Doesn't look retro anymore :)
I saw a bunch of planes in new livery at JFK it looks awesome. You could see everyone turning their heads to look at the new livery.
I love the livery but I wish they would change the logo. Just replace the new logo with the old one or something like that and it will be great.
❤️🚢 San'a ❤ .
I Want To Go To America. Let's Have A Flight There.

Classy !
I think that this nwe livery fits really good to the 737s and smaller planes and also to the 777, but i don't like how it looks in the 757
Very nice
I wish they would of kept the planes shiny, it would of been a great livery IMO.
Looks like red, white and blue piano keys on the tail! And yes, I agree, there is something very Greyhound bus lines about the new livery. Look at the eagle logo along the fuselage just back of the cockpit.
I love the new livery; it looks patriotic, and a lot classier than bare metal.
now, we miss it 😪
it has not flown to LAX with regular service yet.
Nice
I'm gonna miss the polished aluminum and the "AA" on the tail. The new livery has some appeal but the classic 1968 livery makes American so unique.
dude that looks like 3 musketeer wrappers
The old classic lightning bolt was the best.
👼
As i am retried from American Airlines thank you for this video
go American my dad. was retired. from American airlines
Hlw i want to connect with you
Love American Airlines
Love amerucan airlines
It's like a disaster movie!! You should rename this 'Airport 2013 - The American screw up'. --- Hey!, I think that's Charlton Heston Piloting!!!!!
I like the older ones better
they should have painted the cabin part of the aircraft white instead of gray but the tail looks really good thou
I think I remembered when I went to the North California
Now, Lufthansa is the only Company with a unique design....
Does anyone know what runway the plane landed on in the first clip of the 737 landing?
Is there a 777 in new livery?
very nice plane
I really do like the new livery, but I feel the design would be nice if it didn't include the new redesigned eagle. It doesn't seem to fit in well.
Good nice 👍👍👍👍
nice :) !
Very nice airport American
That's the problem. The new composite materials they make planes out of now have to be painted.
One day i will come here
nice wroki bro good ...
The chrome effect was more eyecatching.
Cool
i still think the old textures are better...
Nice
It looks good but when you are inside the airplane you are bombarded with the harsh engine sound. My friend james asquith was really screwed up by that noise.
I'm flying to London today on a 777-300 ER.
Hope that these ones would be safe
For passengers
I'm still trying to get used to the new livery. I like the "flight symbol"; I would like to see a shinier or more silver colored background and I still think the tail is a little much.
My take: The tail is too busy for the simple yet elegant fuselage.
Videos now be like: LOOK!! RATE APPEARANCE OF OLD AMERICAN AIRLINES LIVERY!!!
Guys, they are still using the old american airlines planes
*_lindo Demais!_*
It's a perfect one
I would like to see MD-80 in new livery. MD-11 would look nice too in new American scheme. Too bad American wants to depart with all McDonnell Douglas aircraft.
At first I thought it was ugly, then it kind of grew on me so, screw it, it's not bad.
I do have to say it seems like an awful expense to repaint a whole fleet of aircraft for both American and US Air.
I love this country
Don't those new livery planes look absolutely sleek when landing. A much better and grander representation of the word "American" than the last logo.
yes... what THEY call the eagle....
That is my dream flight
the new livery looks good only on the 737's
Huh,the livery looks like...oh I don't know.. An old OneWorld member from Mexico. I think perhaps Mexicana de Aviacion's new livery before they went bankrupt?!
@VTDHD 2:19 is a 767-300 or -200.
ChrisTheAvgeek / Aviation And Rail Productions 200 I believe
N368AA is a -300.
-300
Aman Hello -300, I think they retired the -200 before the launching of the (new) livery.
It will be very nice at least they paint one MD-80 in new AA colors before sending them to boneyards.
Jaeho Lee thats a waste of money and paint
I like America International Airport
American Airlines: First into the towers!
No 9/11 pls
This new livery feels a bit borrowed from British Airways.
Hello dear , how are you doing today ?
lol i liked both top comments
Love the new Logo.....but bring back the bare metal!
i like the plane but i dont like the livery. thanks for the awesome video.
How many of those new Americans were there
This I think is one of the better new liveries of the recent times. Airlines like JAL, Malaysia (both A330/737 and A380 versions) and Finnair went on a step backward with their bland, tasteless new liveries.
At first, I didn't like it...but as I see it now and considered what they did...a great looking livery...it's a compromise for the merger...but nicely done...at least they worked it...look how stupid it is to see a Continental tail on a United!
It's not quite as recognisable, though. But does look smarter.
