Air China's newest special paint scheme

[matthew mcdonald]

I don't know how to link photos from Jet Photos to this board so I'll just talk about it. Air China have painted B-6076 (A330-200) in one of the nicest paint schemes in modern day aviation. (I think). I suggest going onto Jet Photos to check it out if you haven't already.

Thanks

P.S It frequently travels to Sydney

Actually, the aircraft is called Capital Pavilion, which is also the brand name for Air China's spanking new Business Class. More info on this aircraft is available at http://en.carnoc.com/list/8/8842.html

However, this aircraft will not be deployed for Sydney or Melbourne services too regularly as I have been told in person that its primary international destinations will be Vancouver, Paris and Rome plus some domestic sectors etc. But it will occasionally be used for the airline's Australian services.

Instead, another specially liveried aircraft, which is set to be unveiled in mid- or late October, the sister aircraft "Forbidden Pavilion" (also the brand name for Air China's new First Class), will be more regularly used for Sydney and Melbourne services. Well, at least that's the current plan.

I think there are a number of other contenders for that crown flying around but it is a very nice scheme they have come up with.

I reckon we should start a thred called - Worlds Best Livery and take submissions and let the site members vote.
