Trump would 'absolutely' scrap Biden's Air Force One colors, adviser says

16. Do a Google image search for "airline liveries"

Notice that a majority are lighter colors. Liveries that are all black or dark blue create thermal issues on the plane's interior that reduce fuel efficiency. (Some say that dark colors on the engine nacelles create severe enough thermal issues that could cause engines to malfunction in flight. But, I don't buy this given today's advanced engine technology.)

There are some all-dark liveries out there, but these are usually temporary paint schemes for sports teams, movies or other passing themes. Airlines are willing to take the hit for the publicity on a onesees-twosees basis.

I suppose the Air Force One planes have enough excess performance to just swallow the energy issues that accompany dark liveries. But, I'd just a soon not let the Orange Asshole ® sanitize the office and its trappings of its heritage and replace it with crass, right-wing decoration.
