No, it would look red. The weird thing about air is that it's not reflection or absorption that gives the color, but scattering, and that means the color is strongly dependent on what direction you are looking at it from in a way that most transparent mediums aren't.
replyOk, so the air would be red from one angle, blue from another. In each case, that is what color the air “really” is, in the same sense that a butterfly’s wings are blue (but not from every angle)
