Very weird font on the tail logo though. I think I prefer the original Virgin "scrawl" :)

Can't take the credit. It was in a forum on airliners.net. I just wanted a good reason to be the first to post into the VN forum here.

At least you can claim to have been the first to post in the Virgin Nigeria forum:D

Virgin Nigeria Airbus 340-300

http://www.airliners.net/open.file?id=859241&TopOfYest=yes

This makes me happy. the start to the end of the VS A343

VN needs ALL A343.

IAD needs A380 now but I think I am being selfish again. :) Sorry - anyway there is the link

By the look of it (and bearing in mind other Virgin Nigeria aircraft have the "clean" version of the Virgin logo), by keeping the 'scrawl' version on the A343, it's saved them almost all of the repaint costs for the tail.

My guess is that the scrawl will be phased out on those aircraft that are completely repainted; if the logo's already the right words on the ones they're getting from VS, why change it?!

PP.net has three pictures when you search for Virgin Nigeria, but I beleive there are one or two more where VK is not credited.

I know the virgin brand is red ie the main logo. However, i think the VK planes(sounds like a drink) look a bit odd with a red and green branging, either slightly alter the vigin logo or keep the red branding and not use green. even VS branding is purple which is close to red. i guess they dont want people to confuse it with VS.
