Intro sentence

[edit]

Can't we do better than "Aircraft livery is a livery applied to an aircraft"? Specifically, is there a concise way to define "livery" so that the reader doesn't have to click through to another article? --Doradus (talk) 03:22, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup proposal

[edit]

This article is something of a mess. I propose reordering the into the following sections:

1. General terminology

Introduce terms like cheatline.

2. History

A brief history of the practice of aircraft branding. What was the first airline to standardize their livery? How has this changed over time?

3. Commercial aviation

Trends in commercial aviation, such as eurowhite, logojet, retrojet, and common branding across "alliances".

4. Military aviation

A brief introduction to camouflage and active camouflage, with links to main articles aircraft camouflage and active camouflage

5. Legislation (?)

Any legislation that may have come about w.r.t. aircraft livery. Eg the always popular claim on the Eurowhite page/talk page that the collision of Hughes Airwest Flight 706 led to airlines moving away from the eurowhite scheme (for example, Hughes Airwest took up that nauseating banana yellow-and-blue coloring scheme.)

Thoughts? --Mûĸĸâĸûĸâĸû (blah?) 19:56, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

White space

[edit]

Quite a bit. Could someone please arrange or remove a few images. I'll leave it to you because I do not know which are important to keep. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 11:29, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Mostly done. May still need some touch ups and a bit more rearrangement. If no one else gets to it, I'll see what I can do at a later time. Added to my To Do list. HuffTheWeevil / talk / contribs 15:34, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
