Why couldn't you have kept this...

NOT MY PHOTOS, CREDIT GOES TO THE PERSON AT AIRLINERS.NET THAT TOOK THIS SHOTS!!

The hybrid TWA/AA paint.  American killed one of the most Iconic airlines ever, and an icon of aviation.  I mean, why can't you have kept this? It's a great paint, and it still flys ones of the greatest tails ever. Bring it back American!

Look at the plane behind it; TWA 712, in TWA's last paint, and a great one... Either AirTran or the boneyard... :'( Image

Ya, I love that too! You just reminded me that I need to pick up a diecast model of it, I really wish they would have kept that name running.

Yeah, me too.  I Collect  luggage tags (yeah, i'm weird like that  :P) and I was looking through them a couple of months ago, and found I had a TWA tag! Now that's in the same section as my Concorde, and PanAm.
