Default ****OFF TOPIC**** Would you fly this airline? :) :)

I was surfing through rec.travel.air, and someone had posted this link to an
image of a botched paint job on a United Airlines aircraft:

http://www.untied.com/images/untied_plane.jpg

Although it is from a web site that seems to be critical of United, it is
still funny. Enjoy.

More like a botched PaintShop job; I mean, they couldn't even get the
colours right wiping the crossarm of the 'T'

Funny. But put the blame where it probably belongs. I see evidence of
PhotoShop residue, as if someone switched the tops of the "T" and "I", then
cloned over the vacated space around the original "T".

Rommie would probably sic "Tweedle-Dee" and "Tweedle-Dum" on them for a stunt
like that.

You can tell just by playing with the saturation.

Though there are clearly other marks in the photo as well.

My wife, as a hobby, mangles photos for comic effect.
I think she's insulted that whoever did that one did so
in such a *lazy* way...

Yes, I had been wondering if the photo had been retouched. Still
funny.
