Lufthansa Retro-Jet...
We love a retro-jet more than anyone, and certainly Lufthansa have a habit of bringing back old colour schemes... So, let's head back to the beginning as this is an adaptation of Lufthansa's first livery dating from 1954 until 1960 when the first passenger jets arrived on scene.
The original livery is very different to today's Lufthansa livery, euro-white with grey underbelly but the crane has remained intact, engulfed around yellow on the tail which is mainly blue.
Once upon a time, 2 Airbus A321's wore this colour scheme, Romeo X-Ray which gained the livery in 2005 to celebrate the 50th anniversary since Lufthansa was founded but has recently been repainted back into Lufthansa's standard colours in 2014. Delta Victor has carried this livery since brand new in 2012 and is based at Frankfurt.
Lufthansa's short-haul fleet largely comprises of the Airbus A320 family which include 30 Airbus A319's, 52 Airbus A320's and 64 Airbus A321's (20 on the A321-100 and 44 on the A321-200). Currently, Lufthansa have a number of the A320 family on-order, 28 Airbus A320ceo's, 61 Airbus A320neo's plus 60 options between them and 40 Airbus A321neo's.
Delta Victor was delivered new to Lufthansa in December 2012 and she is powered by 2 IAE V2533-A5 engines.
Airbus A321-231 D-AIDV rolls down Runway 18 at Frankfurt (FRA) on LH1126 to Barcelona-El Prat (BCN).
