Delta has repainted a Northwest A330-300 (N801NW) in its new livery. Many thanks to Nick Vollaro for allowing me to use his photo.

EDIT: Martin Rottler spotted the aircraft in MSP, left a link to his photo in the comments section, and is letting me post it. Thanks!
Josh May also has some good shots (photo one, photo two), but unfortunately he did not give me permission to post his photos here.
I can’t say I really like the way the aircraft looks. Like all of the new Delta birds, I think there’s way too much white than there should be, and I also think the titles on the A330 are to small. I wonder how this livery will look on the shorter A330-200.
What are your thoughts on this new paintjob?
Doesn’t the word “delta” have a loose translation to the word “change” in certain context? I think it’s time for some “delta” in Delta Airlines’ liveries. How about a little creativity people!
Had the opportunity to see the Northwelta A330 last night in MSP (picture here, feel free to use it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mrottler/3232948660/).
The titles are too small, the airplane is too white, and it’s sad to see the good-looking NWA logo painted over with a rather boring widget. The funny thing about DaveFlys comment is that if they were to change liveries, it would be something like change number six in the decade!
(singing) “The plane is white, and it blows!”
They could have at least painted the red logo on the winglets….very plain looking.
