Today we feature the A320neo of the fictional Manta Airlines in the revised 1985 livery. Featuring G-SIMZ, the 3rd A320neo to enter service with the airline. It is nicknamed the “Warm Welcome” aircraft to represent the friendly service that is offered with Manta Airlines.
Airline/Livery History:
Manta Airlines started in 1952 with a sleek, bare metal livery design with the first A320neo. In the mid-80s, Manta looked to expand their fleet by adding some additional aircraft. G-SIMZ was delivered in October of 1985 featuring a new livery. This livery removed the bare metal look for a white fuselage but kept the engines with the metal look. The tail was changed to look closer to what the current 2021 tail looks like and this livery features the cyan colour more so than it’s predecessor. The European Union flag is also represented on this aircraft as the United Kingdom joined the EU in the mid 70s.
Thanks to Padday for the help getting the bare metal look on the engines.
Thanks to 320 Sim Pilot for the creation of Manta Airlines and the approval of this livery.
