For example, the current Stobart contract from the Isle of Man dictates that should a replacement be used.. Just a thought though but probably more closely linked to the airline still having some control over its identity or a clause in the contract agreeing to a certain number of aircraft in franchise colors.
An interesting thought - thanks. Until recently the airline had very little identity outside of Flybe. I can only think the decision not to slap Flybe across the airframe is somehow connected with the uncertain future of Flybe.
