Looks quite nice in the BA livery, look forward to seeing it on its way to Heathrow.

You mean like every other one of BA's planes?

[Jonay]

but it just looks particularly out of place on the A380

[UnitedGuy]

This just goes to show that the BA livery looks good on just about anything!

[shamupilot]

That looks awesome!

[Independence76]

Some airlines tend to have awkward title placements on the A380, but BA is a fair exception. Looks a bit odd so low to the lower windows, but the ribbon is placed properly in proportion to the titles.

Still, a fantastic looking airplane, and congratulations to BA for their newest flagship!

Just looks a little "odd" to me Still, awesome stuff ^.^

I've seen a lot of comments on A.net and here about how this is the best looking A380 but I can't see it.
I think it's quite boring given that most of it is white and have always preferred the old 'Landor' livery.
I personally think Malaysia's scheme is the most striking on an A380.

I think it looks really nice. Personally Id prefer to see the text a little larger so it covers more of the fuselage though.

Apparently the first one will be based at Manston for crew training.

Think it looks brilliant. Quite flattering on the A380, it understates its size I feel.

[Jetset]

Don't get me wrong. I'm pleased to finally see this aircraft in BA colours but it IS just normal BA colours.
I don't see what all the fuss is about.

I don't think it suits the BA livery to be completely honest but nonetheless it still looks good. LH and QF suit it the best IMO.

I don't like MH's, it was a cheap attempt at a new livery for their A380, but it's so bland. I like simple liveries, but not just completely bland ones like MH's. It would've looked nicer in their other 'new' livery, the one seen on the 738s and the A333s.

I'm going to have to look up the definition of 'Bland' coz I sure as ###### thought it meant boring/ uninspiring/ basic

[SwitchFX]

It looks like a fat MP coming down the runway.
