Macau Airlines Airbus A340-300


Macau Airlines Airbus A340-300

Airbus A340-300... Did pretty good I think but the black stripe was hard to make look good cause the green was kind off.. Oh well

Also can someone tell me how to use those little emoji's in this? Thanks.

So, time for lore!

Macau Airlines in 1994 needed to spruce up it's old livery, so corporate came up with this pretty decent looking livery. The A340's were the first aircraft to be painted new in this scheme. Depicted here is PM-A34C, the third A340-300 Macau Airlines received ever! Sadly, most A340's are currently being phased out, with half the fleet currently in storage and the other half already retired as the newer 787-9's and soon to be A350's enter service...

Look out for a 747 next! But I've got lunch... So see y'all later!

Thanks to Med for the template



    Not sure if its my internet being bad or of the image is just a super low resolution but this is already a major improvement. However, do note that liveries, while they *can* be done in a matter of minutes or hours, should take a day or two to make adjustments and refine. The more time spent on a livery, the better it is likely to be. On average mine take 2-4 days, though some of my liveries have taken me literal months to make and refine, and one took nearly a year and a half. Obviously, these are extreme examples, but there shouldn't be any rush to make a livery nonetheless, especially when you're learning.
    Adding on to what G.J said, another good idea once you've finished a livery is to leave it, not look at it for an hour or so, then come back to it with fresh eyes and make sure it's as good as you think it was. If you decide that actually, it could use a bit more work, then keep refining it until you're even happier with you it. Rinse and repeat until you think it's truly the best it can be.

    That said, this is a rather large improvement already! Not bad!

    pretty cool. I like. What routes does it fly on?

    Usually the A340 was alongside the 747 on high density routes (Macau-Beijing, Macau-Tokyo) Though it occasionally operated the MFM-LAX route if demand called for it

    I don't think Macau has the demand for a 747. I mean maybe the 747SP but the demand from Macau is very limited. Especially to the US.

     

    But it is just a game. And I love a good olde 747

    Yeah, I know... I kinda like to think though that in this universe Macau kinda became as popular as its British neighbor and has a bigger airport...

    Hey that's a great idea! All we need to do is convince Winnie the Pooh to open Macau to US based Airlines and build a bigger airport and then that's where you get your customers. 

     

    Imagine this....Macau! the Las Vegas of Asia!
