I shot an XOJet Citation X at Paine Field over the holidays.  The light was at a nice low angle since it was not long after the shortest day and it picked out details on the airframe nicely.  I was surprised to see that the jet was in a grey paint finish.  I have shot a few XOJet Citation Xs over the years.  Some of the earlier ones were in a pretty standard looking livery, not unlike NetJets.

I then started to see them in an all white paint finish.  This was definitely not too exciting and had the look of someone that was ready to save money when they sold their jets without the need to repaint them.  The new scheme is not much better but at least it looks slightly more deliberate than a plane you couldn’t decide what to paint it.  I wonder if this is a new standard for them or just an oddball?
