I think, this livery will be the standard livey of EY, look this pic of MSN 166 www.flickr.com/photos/xfwspotter/14420164197/ and you can see the tail with the same colors. I think MSN 166 will be paint completed in the new color from Hamburg, you can not buy a new Bentley in base color for try to paint it after in your house.

I think it has to do with keeping the new paint scheme secret!

I think it has to do with keeping the new paint scheme secret! Pretty much. It looks like they're going to have #2 and #3 painted in Hamburg after all.

That picture behind the Powerbox was never confirmed as MSN166, while it might still be it, who knows from the tip of the tail if the whole Tail entirely reflects the colours of the Tails of MSN170 and MSN176?... I would agree also that probably ETH would like to make a 'reveal' in its own house if MSN166 would be fully painted at AUH?...

I think it has to do with keeping the new paint scheme secret! Well, they will have a new livery, however, we love the airplanes and visit this page and other sites to see news every day, but many people do not care about it, they will ask in the year 2022, ... Etihad has new livery? if the reazon for no paint is the secret, EY can paint an older plane for practice painting and present to the public new image or the A380 can fly at night from Hamburg to AUH. If they want paint a new plane, can do it with the B787, it costs is half of A380 price, and EY will have like 70 B787, and only 10 A380. The A380 is the jewel in the crown, EY wait 5 years doing its interior, EY doing every thing very good with this plane, but, the last point, the paint, they want practice painting in the hangar in AUH, it's ridiculous. If the problem is that new livery is not ready yet, EY can wait 1 month more for delivey, QR takes 1 year making lies for no pay its A380, i think EY don't have problem with 1 month more for delivey. i think, A380 isn't for play, if Mr Hogan needs practice painting, he can paint his car, but not this plane, is the flagship of the Airline. You put every option in your new Mercedes Benz S65 AMG W222, pay 250.000 EUR for it, and go to your garage to practice painting it.

I don't think so, when msn 170 tail show its colors, EY put in its FB with others special livey and people write about it. I think they want know what think people about it, but the livery of the MSN 166, 170 and 176 is the same. Why you need a special livery, when you have a new one for all new planes?
