CS-provided Liveries

While CS selected good and correct liveries for the 777, I have been surprised with some of the other liveries chosen. For instance, American Airlines is a large operator of 757s, but the 757 does not come with an AAL livery.

Now, that's not so bad on the 757, but look at a few of the liveries with the 767:

- KLM: included, never used by airline
- Alitalia: included, never used by airline
- Delta: not included, used a fair amount by airline
- Hawaiian: not included used a lot by airline
- ANA: not included, used a lot by airline
- American: not included, used a fair amount by airline

I don't want to just complain, but I would like to see more-utilized liveries included in future aircraft like they were in the 777.  Smiley

Hi, Boeing247 I agree with you but have you checked out the McPhat American liveries for the 757? Also check this out.

Also take a look at this.

I agree with you. But does anyone know the CS reasons? Maybe CS marketing team wanted to hit the target people of several countries and not to follow just as at real world.
  

My fleet (CS and from others developers):

L1011; B777-200/F; B777-200/F (LR); MD-11/F;B737-600/700/800/900NG; B767-300/200/F/KC ; B757-300/200/F ; C130 X-perience All-In-One; B707-300/300C; B727-100/200; B737-200/200ADV; WX Radar

That could be true, but then why don't they just provide more liveries? I don't have a problem with them including KLM and Alitalia (I actually really like KLM), but I think they should include airlines such as ANA and Hawaiian.

Yes, I know that those airlines have used 767s, but if you check FlightAware (http://flightaware.com/live/) you will sadly (I like KLM and Alitalia, as I have said) find that neither airline frequently utilizes 767s.  Sad

And I have downloaded the McPhat AAL livery, it's really good.

Edit: I did find out that Alitalia still utilizes five 767s (but not frequently). However, KLM no longer uses 767s.

Okay, KLM and Alitalia have used the 767.

But not including Delta? The worlds largest operator of the type, with 100+ aircraft? They only had two 767-200 liveries, they could have at least included United, the launch, Delta a famous operator, and Air Canada's Gimli Glider!
