Hellenic National A300-B4

During the early 1970's, Hellenic National decided it would be time to expand into longer and denser routes, and there were two choices, the DC-10-10 or the A300-B4. Hellenic went with the Airbus as it seemed more suited to low range high density routes. Two engines over three was an easy one due to the oil crisis of the early 1970's, and these airframes were deployed to fly routes such as Athens to London, or Stockholm. The Airbus gave Hellenic a big boost in profits and many customers commented on it being quieter and more comfortable compared to other widebodies. The first A300 was painted in the original Hellenic National livery, but it was later repainted into the new mid 1970 livery.

SX-AXE, shown here, was delivered in 1977 and scrapped in 1996. It was configured in 188 Standard Coach in 8 abreast, and 39 Achilles Exclusive

    I like this brand, but I think the blue could be a little lighter for this one.  :)

    I love your liveys!

    I find the name "Spartan" quite odd for a business class considering that the Spartans led a life devoid of any luxury to the point that Spartan, used as an adjective, is synonymous of austere.

    Leaving that aside, I love your seat maps!!!

    I know but I didn't think brighter blue would fit the 70's. This would be noted for future modern liveries :D
