Those purple Q400s really are gross! Nice A109 shots though.

There's no accounting for taste with some people :P ;)

I still think they should do a "retroprop" and repaint one in 1980s or 1990s Jersey Airways livery:

I can't get on with the purple either. For me, their old livery was their identity.

Not a fan of the purple but more bothered about the legend "faster than road or rail". If they want to state the obvious, how about "uglier than a wart on a rhino's bum". :lol:

Maybe they just couldn't get it all on...
