You know, I'm generally not much of a livery aficionado, but I think you're right about that. Just looks like something a budget airline would have.
Edit: Anyone have any idea what's up with the tail number? It doesn't have the N-number that every US-registered plane is supposed to have. Must have been purchased from another airline and hasn't been re-registered. I know Sun Country in MSP has some planes shared with Transavia, since they have opposite busy seasons, so I've worked their charters with a foreign tail number. But I wouldn't expect AA to have something like that. And that picture looks like the tail number is photoshopped...

Since AA hasn't formally taken delivery yet, Airbus uses a European registration, in this case with the German 'D' prefix and flag. It will change to an N registration after delivery. I remember seeing a pre-delivery BA A380 having an F prefix and French flag. I believe Boeing does the same before they deliver aircraft bound for foreign carriers.
The plane was built in Germany. Upon delivery the registration is changed.Originally Posted by spongebue

I suppose this means we’ll be keeping the new livery post merger - disappointing.Posted from airliners.net User Photo. Can't say that I'm a huge fan. The windows where the 'American' logo is look like bullet holes.

Unfortunately, or something else Doug Parker and friends decide. They need to preserve/bring back the classic AA.
Makes you wonder what Dougie was serving at that meeting!!

Starting 9/16/13, the following routes will mix in a A319 to the route:
DFW-CLT
DFW-CLE
DFW-MEM
DFW-ICT
Does anybody have a picture of a AA Babybus? That will be interesting to see..
THANK YOU. Was waiting on this...
That is one cheesy-@ss livery. Where'd they get it done, Earl Scheib? I've seen custom bikes look better! Wow--the "bullet holes" look awful--that comment is hysterical!
