Lufthansa looks so much better 
although I also like the Delta version. But it's clearly not as striking as the LH

LH wins hands down with how it's a brilliant reimagination of their iconic logo - in turn creating another iconic livery.
That way, DL's looks nice ofc and I love it, but when you see it now - is actually pretty generic and whimsical with those swoops that don't relate to the logo or identity or history at all - and they got rid of the red! Even though it's still part of their branding
About 6.000 Airbus A320 family has been grounded because...

- European aerospace giant Airbus has warned flights will be disrupted after it requested immediate modifications to thousands of its planes
- The move comes after the discovery that intense radiation from the Sun could corrupt data crucial to flight controls
- About 6,000 planes are thought to be affected, which makes up about half of Airbus's global fleet, but it is understood most will be able to undergo a simple software update
- The UK's aviation regulator has said carrying out the updates would likely cause "some disruption and cancellations to flights"
- American Airlines, Delta Airlines, Air India, Wizz Air and Air New Zealand have all warned of disruption to flights

Why are airlines constantly changing their livery
When something works, it doesn’t need to be changed, especially into something worse

They changed their livery almost two years ago actually - this is the first widebody in the new schemeWhy are airlines constantly changing their livery
I would say that, more than "new" is a revised livery with the blue arriving to the belly instead of ending at rudders level, the missing of light blue, the missing red line under the Aeromexico written and the adding of the blue-red stripes at the end of the fuselage and on the engines.

Unpopular opinion perhaps, but I like this revised livery - the red/maroon is now more central and integral to the scheme - in the previous iteration, it seemed like an afterthought with just a little of it at the edges - maybe there could have been some red/maroon on the V stab in this new scheme - nonetheless it's very smart the way it is

Agree with you that Is a refreshed livery, something more "modern". Aeromexico was enough intelligent not to completely change livery because, as already said, the livery is one of the most elegant and beautiful of the sky!
Why are airlines constantly changing their livery
Indeed... some airlines don't really need to change at all. Maybe only minor adjustments.
This new Aeromexico livery is not bad IMO but previous was better
I always wonder who decides when and why an airline had to change livery. Yes, i imagine that the decision Is took by CEO and administrators, but "why" and "when"? Livery change isn't a thing happening "from yesterday to today", it Is a very delicate thing because the livery is the main look of an airline and something wrong could affect everything about an airline. Why and when there Is the need to change livery?

Sometimes I wonder the same thing. I imagine it must be very costly to change the livery... usually airlines change their schemes every 10, 15 years.
