New VA callsign - Velocity?

[m.r.a.z.23]

Started hearing this being used today - more than a few pilots and controllers alike struggling with the name change!

Why the change? Is it to bring the group under a common callsign? (Pretty sure I heard V Oz using it as well)

They wanted the same call sign across all companies and Virgin wasn't an option.
