The Yellowbirds. From 1933 to 1972, Northeast worked New England and the Florida run, and painted its fleet a yellow so bright the airplanes needed no other name — until Delta absorbed it.

THE STORY

The Yellowbirds

Northeast worked New England and the Florida run, and in 1966 painted its fleet a yellow so bright the airplanes were simply called Yellowbirds. Delta absorbed it on 1 August 1972. Our Northeast designs draw on the Yellowbird years — the marks crews wore from Boston to Miami.

Every garment is printed when you order it, in the USA, with the disclaimer on the label: an independent tribute, for the people who remember.
