I like the globe tail, but I would have preferred they kept the tri-color cheat line (from the older gray and blue scheme).  It would bring some extra color into the mix.  It probably costs too much, though.  (It costs more on models, too - I hand-painted it and had to use three unique colors).

I wouldnt even bother with repainting some of those planes. Leave most in Continental paint to continue to spirit of said airlines. United Airlines can be plastered near the front door of the aircraft or simply in smaller font infront of Continental. This can be this way until a final, new scheme can be come up with.
