Strange sense of déjà vu at Frankfurt International Airport

As we were being bused from our plane from Greece to the terminal where I was to transfer to Amsterdam last Thursday morning, one of my fellow travelers commented on this plane. I had to agree with him: it was a strange sight.



What is Lufthansa doing? Are they engaged in some kind of nostalgic advertising campaign? None of the other planes were decked out in this retro paint job. Just this one.

Sorry I didn't think fast enough to grab my camera while I had the opportunity to see the entire plane. Even the tailfin had an old fashioned logo.
