why doesn't atlas take care of their aircrafts? this can never be good for their corporate image..or is it difficult to repaint an aircraft in these harsh economic times?

Marlon, its hard to say what the situation is on that aircraft. I think Atlas is concerned about appearance, perhaps its a logistics issue. Seems like someone had commented on this picture a ways back. I was thinking this aircraft got a repaint soon after this?

Painting = Downtime.
And planes dont make money sitting on the ground.
I know our leases are around $20G an hour all inclusive.
So take a few days to paint a plane, now u see why

If I remember correctly, this was due to a hail storm, not neglect.
