Washington —
Fifty white stars painted on deep blue next to seven red and white stripes will take the skies this summer on two United Airlines planes.
The “Stars and Stripes” livery special paint scheme developed by the company in honor of America’s 250th anniversary will be on a Boeing 787-10 and a Boeing 737-800 aircraft.
“United Airlines plays a front and center role in spreading (American) culture and those traditions around the globe,” said United CEO Scott Kirby at an unveiling of the livery at United’s hangar at Washington-Dulles International Airport on Monday.
United is the third airline to display a special livery in advance of the Independence Day celebrations this year.
