(Daily Mail) – Delta Air Lines surprised staff when it revealed a custom-decorated aircraft with the names of all 90,000 employees forming the words ‘thank you’ on its fuselage.

The shock unveiling took place at the company’s HQ in Atlanta, Georgia, after it announced that eligible employees would be getting a 16.7 per cent payout thanks to a $1.6billion profit-sharing initiative.

The livery features the words ‘thank you’ painted on both sides of the aircraft, with 45,000 names on one side of the fuselage, and another 45,000 names on the other.

The custom ‘thank you’ message featured on this Airbus A321 aircraft was designed, produced and installed in-house by Delta technicians.

The process, which involved 48 custom decal panels, took more than a week to complete at the Delta TechOps print shop and hangar in Atlanta.
