#Onthisday in 1991, Continental Airlines introduced their new blue, gold, and grey aircraft livery with a globe logo. It replaced the gold and red livery with “jetstresm” logo designed by Saul Bass and introduced in 1968. This color scheme and logo continued to be used after United Airlines merged with Continental in 2010. Do you remember this livery? Image: Continental West Airlines postcard, Boeing 737, c. 1985.
