ATW reports today that LH will paint one of its 4 A380 to be delivered this year in the "whale" bmi colour scheme following bmi joining its Atlantic++ program later this year. The aircraft will be part of the program to re launch services to the US in 2012 by bmi and the build up to the London Olympics in 2012.
The aircraft will be operated by LH flight deck but the cabin crew will be from bmi airbus fleet.
