Air France, Airbus A320-200

Air France has apparently slightly updated its livery with this recently repainted A320.

The updated livery features larger "AIRFRANCE /" markings as on the 787 and A350 fleet, alongside the blue wing fences, and seahorse logo by the cockpit windows instead of the Skyteam logo.

F-HEPC has also been christened "Aurillac"

    Nice

    What's the source? I can't find anywhere about F-HEPC repainted into this. Non of the A320s that recently got repainted into the new livery (with blue wingtip) look like this.

    AF was sneaky for this one. The plane flew to Ostrava for maintenance I assume in January and was repainted while there before flying back 4 days ago. So there aren't any pics of it yet.

    Also why did they put the SkyTeam and AF-KLM logo in the back? It looks weird to me.

    Quite nice, but I agree with Jean about the SkyTeam and AF-KLM logo placement being odd

    It does look strange indeed!

     Now that is a weird version of their livery. I get the big titles (and I like it), but the Skyteam logo all the way on the back and the hippocampe ailé three times in close proximity makes is look redundant. The other change I like is the AF/KLM logo moved to the back. Hopefully this is just a one off test. 

    I must say I like the seahorse logo on the engines, close to the doors and on the inside of the winglets, but I don’t get why they’d put it as well on the cockpit as you mention, it’s a bit tacky.

    I also dislike the move of the Skyteam and AFKL logos to the back!

    This is... interesting so to speak

    Weird that this is basically a replacement of all SkyTeam branding with the seahorse logo...surely alliance rules include some sort of requirements or at least guidance for where the ST logo should be placed?

    You'd think so, but it seems amongst Skyteam rules aren't enforced thoroughly... Look at Alitalia with their tiny Skyteam logo compared to Aeroflot for example:
