  • Alaska Airlines and the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute today unveiled the world's largest king salmon. Stretching nearly 129 feet, the fish-themed design adorns one of the airline's Boeing 737-800. The 91,000 pound king will boldy promote the world's finest seafood as it flies on routes throughout the airlines network which spans from the Hawaiian Islands to Boston.

    I believe if you painted more animals (especially animals on the endangered list) that would attracted more customers especially children and adults that still have that inner-self child. I loved the Salmon design on the plane. As a retire employee of PSA and US Air I have enjoyed several flights on Alaskan Airlines and give them A+ on their customer service and creativity.

    Comments are turned off for many Alaska airlines videos! They have made a mockery of " The Safety Dance " song. This song is about non conformity according to the guitarist of Men without hats! Wearing a mask is about domination and control of your life. Alaska Airlines be ashamed of yourself, and for turning off the comments!

      @@rj3615 This is not necessary true. Most record companies and artist s hold the copyrights to songs together if they are well established. Lesser artists unfortunately in many cases hold no copyrights whatsoever, but it's the record companies that do. The bottom line once again with this song by lead singer and songwriter of this song Ivan Doroschuk has stated many times this is a Anti establishment song ( look it up ). And Masks are establishment and conformity. So the facts clearly show that your argument is baseless and without merit. I wish you the best.

    Amazing.. but;
    I wonder why do they paint the plane? What will do when they want to change the theme?!
    Wraping with printed foil is more reasonable in my opinion.

    • @GregSchmidt711
      @GregSchmidt711 5 лет назад +1

      737's top allowed speed is 490 knots or about 564 MPH. The printed foil would unpeal quickly, and probably gum up the engine, flaps, rudders, and stabilizers causing it to crash.

    • @jmowreader9555
      @jmowreader9555 10 месяцев назад +2

      SuperPicasso, paint has a lot of advantages over a wrap on a plane. Aviation-rated vinyl exists and I have printed on it. (Greg, it's rated for a higher airspeed than a 737 can reach. It'll stay on the plane in flight.) It has three problems. The first is that it's expensive AF - about three times as expensive as 3M IJ180 cast vinyl for vehicle application, which is over $800 a roll - and a 737 would require about 20 rolls of it. Problem 2 is that washing the aircraft would rub the ink off. The third, and the reason I'd never recommend it for an airliner, is that it can't be laminated. You've seen vehicle wraps and how shiny they are. The shine is courtesy of gloss laminate. Aircraft vinyl is perforated so that any air trapped under the film can escape as the plane climbs - all wraps have air trapped under the film. If you laminated it you'd block all the air egress perforations. Aviation-rated film has a matte surface, so you'd have a very dull-looking airplane. The single-stage Imron paint they use on airplanes is quite glossy. By painting it you get a more durable, more attractive result.

  • @bngordon73
    @bngordon73 8 лет назад

    Would be interested to understand more about the fact that the airplane was offline for almost a month. Was there other work happening inside the plane that made the downtime more tolerable? Is that timeline on par with the time required for a standard repaint ?
