I didn't even think about it until today, but the Star Alliance logos are dropping like flies. Almost all the planes I've seen have had the Star removed in the progression towards 3/30. Here's one where you can see the patch where it used to be http://www.flickr.com/photos/flyerphoto/12143630466/

Time to change your picture N700UW...

 

[700UW]

Nope, lol.

Something is not right. 700UW would have Star Alliance tail. The aircraft in the picture has a flag tail. Must be more than one in for painting.

 

[700UW]

The tail is normally a sticker, they just put a new sticker or paint over the the livery when it was painted in the star livery.
 
Nothing is wrong, look at the photos, the tail # is quite clear 700UW.

First US Airways Aircraft Painted in New AA Livery Will be Delivered on January 30th
To: All Employees

Good afternoon all,

As an important step in the integration process of the new American Airlines, the first US Airways aircraft has been painted in the new AA livery and will be delivered on January 30th, as Doug stated in his State of Airline Meeting today.

The first aircraft, an A319, will look like the American Airlines aircraft painted in the new AA livery except that it will have the US flag over the aircraft number on the nose gear door and an “Operated by US Airways” aft of the L1 door. This will help differentiate the carrier (Legacy American or Legacy US Airways) in which the aircraft belongs to.

N700UW will not have a oneworld sticker, and another 319 is headed to ROW http://flightaware.com/live/flight/AWE9250/history/20140130/0100Z/KCLT/KROW

The next one to be painted is N703UW

The crew flying that 319 to ROW right now will most likely pick up 700UW and fly it back to CLT. When I was on the baby bus, I flew several times to ROW in a plane to be painted and picked up one with fresh paint and flew right back (In the middle of the night of course)... I remember seeing several Metrojet 737's parked there just off the taxiways... That would be a nice place to visit in the daytime when you could really see all the old planes parked there...
