Why should this livery be added?
Would give another long haul aircraft for Austrian’s fleet, only 2 being operated from 1997 to 2007 before they were handed to sister airline Swiss. The aircraft were brought in for long haul routes to both North America, like Toronto and JFK, and Asia, such as Tokyo Narita, with some even serving as the last mainland European airline to fly to SYD and Melbourne, via Kuala Lumpur and Singapore respectively, ending when the fleet left. The aircraft were ordered with the same specifications as both Swissair and Sabena, so the aircraft could be interchangeable, but they faced issues when both went into administration, and with the inheritance of Lauda’s long haul Boeing fleet which were better placed for Austrian’s needs.They would add a cool Airbus long haul for players to fly in and out of their airports, with a good range to meet most of the playable airports in-game, with the potential to have the aircraft available at Kuala Lumpur as it was historically so it could be utilised at SYD.
