American heritage livery

American Airlines A319 N744P taxiing in at George Bush Intercontinental, Houston, having arrived from Los Angeles. The aircraft is one of several in their fleet that wears a special heritage livery harking back to previous airlines that now operate under the American brand.

 

As ever, the twists and turns of ownership are complicated. In this instance extremely complicated as there seems to be two different "Piedmont" Airlines both of which ended up under the US Airways umbrella. That airline was itself later taken over /merged with American Airlines.

 

So I'll leave it be and just enjoy this special livery.
