Summary[edit]

Description

My first look at the post-merger United livery, AKA Continited. Actually works quite well when seen in person - though I am still partial to the tulip, rather than the disco ball.

Although most of the repainted planes are Continental, this one is United, leaving from a United gate and carrying a United registration number. Noting the United style 4-digit airframe numbers (2623) that are now marked up Continental-style (nose gear hatch and near the top of the rear door).

The spotty sunshine makes for some unexpected pleasant lighting effects.

As of May 2011, this photo has become a reference photo at Wikipedia (English, French, and Korean), as there had been no photos of post-merger United aircraft there. It has since been also added to German, Dutch, and Chinese versions of Wikipedia as well.
