Pafetic

Cathay Pacific, Hong Kong’s “flag carrier” airline, admitted it made quite an error after one of its jets was painted. In large letters across the fuselage was its name: “Cathay Paciic” — without even a space where the F should have been. “Oops,” the airline posted on its Facebook page, “this special livery won’t last long! She’s going back to the shop!” The airline was also embarrassed a few years ago when the paint shop applied the company logo to a plane backwards. (RC/South China Morning Post) ...Man, nobody gives an F anymore.
