Japan’s All Nippon Airways (ANA) has partnered with The Walt Disney Company to design a 787 aircraft designed in the style of the series’ iconic droid, R2-D2. The high-flying promotion was unveiled today at the Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, CA.
The R2 Dreamliner will hit the skies for international flights later this year.

WOW!! I think that looks so cool!!
I'm not a great Sci-Fi or indeed even a Star Wars fan but I love that scheme and I bet that an aftermarket decal company will be releasing a sheet for that very soon after launch. I for one would build a kit (I believe the Zvezda kit is currently the best option?) with those markings, it just looks brilliant, well done All-Nippon Airways and Walt Disney I say?!!
What next, an all gold C3P0 version or a fur covered Chewbacca one perhaps (quite a lot of drag on that one though I'd think?)

Plane spotters across the world will be out in force (pardon the pun)
