SIX HUNDRED EL BEES? HOLY FUCK THAT’S A LOTTA PAINT.
That’s why American Airlines had the “cheat line” livery. Bare hulls saved them enough weight to carry like an extra 2 passengers.
Plus, polished metal on airframes looks sweet IMHO. Real “DC3 golden era of aviation” vibes.
And why McLaren went with a silver colour
