There was a time, in the distant past when 216 flew pretty VIP Comet 4s, that they proposed a new scheme for them ... based loosely on the Rothman's cigarette packet. That didn't happen either, although the draft looked lovely.

Sadly I agree .. the Tornado scheme is limp, wimp and utterly uninspiring. Doodling on the fin is cheap, of course: a full repaint job could cost several minutes of a VSO's salary.
