This is a Kuro 787-8 v2 compatible version of the modernized Canadian Airlines livery. In this alternative timeline, Canadian would be operating the 787-8 on some long and thin international routes such as Vancouver - Brisbane, Montreal P.E Trudeau - Tel Aviv and Ottawa - London Heathrow, as well as some high demand intercontinental routes like Toronto Pearson - Los Angeles.
What would Canadian Airlines look like had they survived into the late 2010s and beyond? Well here is my personal take on this question in the form of a fictional what-if livery. This livery is a modern interpretation of the famous Canadian Airlines "Proud Wings" livery that was first unveiled in 1999 and lasted until 2001 when the airline was officially aquired by rival airline Air Canada. The fictional livery keeps the iconic goose and the original colors of the company, but modernizes the font and proposes a new take on the overal paintscheme.
Also, if you would like to feature this particular livery in any of your media such as videos, streams or screenshots you are more than welcome to do so. Feel free to let me know; I'd love to see your content!

Love the livery used it yesterday in a video, I remember CP Air/Canadian airlines fondly, love the modern take on the livery. IMHO the greatest livery to grace a a Airline in Canada, was a somber day they merged with Air Canada who now has the right to use the livery.

Thank you! I loved how you gave a bit of some background and context to the origins of Canadian. You seem to have a lot of knowledge about Canadian aviation, and I am very happy you shared some of it in your video. You just earned youself a new subscriber!
Cheers!

Absolutely amazing. I only request one thing, that you consider making a dirty version of this. Maybe using UKFS’ rivet base to make it as realistic as possible.

Thank you! I'll see what I can do in terms of the dirt/rivets.

Beauty!!! Thank you. Is this using the default beacon lights which comes with v2 or a different mod?
ProudWings author
Thanks!
It uses the default beacon, though I think a new version will be release in the next Kuro 787-8 update.
