Are you SURE it wasn't one of the Star Alliance branded planes (that all *A airlines have to provide), or one of the BMI leased planes?

It's G-WWBD, a BMI A330 which has been leased to Virgin Nigeria. It's usually painted in the Star Alliance scheme when flying for BMI, and elements of this livery have been covered up with vinyl appliques.

Perhaps this thread should be moved to the VK forum.
