Thread: Belly Advertising

What advertising? All I see is Delta Blue underbelly.

You just noticed that !
As each plane goes in for a maintenance (paint) check the Logo is applied in the area between the main gear.
DARK BLUE background and WHITE lettering "DELTA"
I live just off Runway 4/22 here at MSP and I have seen this on more and more aircraft.
From what I understand this is easily applied requiring no scaffolding or special gantry platforms.
Any station with a paint shop can do this with little or no down time for the aircraft.

That's not what I said. The photo shows no logo, just belly color. Not all of us live where we see under the aircraft, R.M. I prefer to sit inside the cabin.

Here’s a better picture. I haven’t seen it yet, guess I have to look up more.

Logos now on bellies of Delta aircraft ? Jan's Aviation

Ah much better with the gear out of the way and little higher picture angle.
Actually you know it is a Delta flight because no one else has the belly painted a Dark Blue !

Yes, much better picture. I'm not in the habit of scanning OAL bellies, tho, so I wouldn't know that at all! Like I said, I prefer the inside of the cabin for my DL flights...hehe
