I agree! They have used a darker blue before, in what, the mid-'80s? And even the dark wood, but with a "tambour-style" door. But this paler fabric with the more subdued pattern, add the dark cabinets, the light floor, with the shiny aluminum backdrop? Stunning!

Waiting to hear if I won the Lottery!

$69,129 2009 Flying Cloud. It does look like a 27' Safari SE FB to me...

Mirror image... sink area/counter is stylish but not functional for us except for popping dinner into the microwave... Stylish... that's it. Airstream seems to have gotten stuck on one design that they use now for everything changing finish (fit's still the same) & color. Upostry material looks like it'll wear easiy. And what the heck is that big foam wedge for behind the dinette seat?

Reminds me of NASA back in the days of "faster, better, cheaper"... the adjective "better' applied to faster & cheaper, unfortunately & not towards quality.

Hummm... I need another cup of coffee...

I wonder why they did the name change? Not a heck of a lot of difference between the Safari and the Flying Cloud and though the FC nameplate is cool, the Safari seemed a bit better and aptly named. Of course, these seem to be more costly, but that could just be the annual price increase.

I always wondered why they took the International CCD and named it the Safari SE. That diluted the 3 distinct product lines IMO.
