LH D-ABYP, LN 1500 is now in full paint! I'm hoping they will do something more to her livery to commemorate things closer to delivery. Pic from the KPAE Blog.

There are definitely two patches, one on either side, where the lufthansa.com used to be, that appear to be covered up or something currently. Also, people have been saying that something might be done closer to delivery. Since that is tentatively scheduled for the end of June, that is still quite a lot of time for them to update it. Also, is it correct that these milestones are usually celebrated on delivery of the said frame? Looking back at the 1000th 777 and 8000th 737, it seems that way, but I'm not certain.

The sticker just covers 'lufthansa.com', it was also seen on their latest A380.

Or if I just missed it on YO, perhaps that means it does undergo some final paint at some point before delivery?

LH getting the 1500th 747 is perfectly fitting, as the airline was the launch customer of the passenger version of the 748 !
