Malaysia's 9M-MLO

Malaysia Airlines is taking delivery of their newest 737-8H6 today. 9M-MLO (c/n 39325, l/n 4085) is making its delivery flight as MAS5403. It's seen above on the Castle & Cooke Aviation ramp, briefly after parking in its overnight parking spot. Note that the winglets on 9M-MLO lack the MAS logo.

According to Aviation Week magazine, Malaysia has been going through an identity crisis with management changing hands. The previous management wanted the new all-blue scheme (like on the A380) but now that they're out and the old management is back , they want to return to the iconic red/blue. This 738 looks more like it's of what to come.

The all white 9M-MLN underwent painting in KUL. Same for 9M-MLO thy are both painted in standard red blue swoosh. The all blue livery seen on the A380 is only for the A380. The other such as the B737-800 and A330-300 will retain the red blue swoosh Llivery.
