Birthday Girl

Will G-VFAB be painted back into standard VS colours at somepoint or will it stay in the special livery?

I think it's due to be re-painted approx Apr/May?? It was given the livery for 12 months I believe??? I stand to be corrected, fairly sure I picked that up on here when it was first rolled out.

Be a shame when it gets the re-paint as the girl looks the biz....[y]

Yeah, it was only painted for a year, however I wouldn't be suprised if it does get some kind of updated livery when it gets repainted.

The aircraft are painted once every six years so I think it will be a while before FAB gets painted again.

I think this is the normal procedure, but -VFAB was only meant to be painted in the birthday girl livery for a limited period - one year.

Also, I popped onto Virgin's press release about Birthday Girl from last year, and they say that most of the livery is just a decal, so they will probably just peel it off and not have to do any or much painting.

Some of it is already starting to come off.

Intentionally, or are the stickers not that good? [:0]
