  • Virgin Nigeria gets first A340


    Well, let's say I'm not too fond of that livery. Too much white, and red&green doesn't fit together.

      There definately a lot of white. I agree, the colour combination isn't the greatest. Where will they fly the A340? LHR?

              On Thursday, June 28, Virgin Nigeria will commence its long haul operation with a twice weekly service to LHR every Tuesday and Thursday, rising to three flights a week from 13 July and the seat configuration on that A340 is 187 Economy class and 28 Premium Economy class and 40 Business class ...

                Here it is on its roll out from Bristol Filton.Nice tail and engines colour boring fuselage.

                The first A340 in full Virgin Nigeria colours rolls out into the sunshine after a full repaint now with a white fuselage. - Photo taken at Bristol - Filton (FZO / EGTG) in England, United Kingdom in June, 2005.

                  Exactly what I was thinking, its not the colors its the fact that they have an A340. It doesn't look that bad from the last pic though. Yah, it's a little too plain and white, but it just adds to the numerous other EuroWhite Schemes out there....
                  Whatever is necessary, is never unwise.

                            It's called sarcasm, and G-VBUS is a -311, not -313
