LOL @ "Conspiracies"The airlines have been covering or painting over their logos on crashed airplanes for almost fifty years now. One of the things that did Pan Am in, was a crash (terrorism) in 1989. The airline had the very unfortunate bad luck to have the entire cockpit section of their 747 come down in Lockerbie, Scotland, almost completely intact. The undeniable Pan Am script, Clipper Maid Of the Seas, was photographed and broadcast all over the world. That image added insult to injury, and was cited as helping to accelerate the airline's demise. Wherever possible, the airlines try to control the images coming out of crash scenes involving their aircraft, up to and including, painting the fuselage over. Sometimes, however, an airline will milk a crash scene for all it's worth, as US Airways did when Sully made a successful ditching of his A320 in the Hudson River a few years ago. |
