The photo indeed was silly but in most cases the names of the company are
merely stickered on. It's like a day or two work because otherwise the
paint had to be scraped off again and get a new expensive treatment.
Personally I find it a missed occasion for Cathay. That plane would've
become an icon, photographed everywhere, free publicity worth a fortune.
