A bit too much for me… how to make a classy looking aircraft look like a fairground ride. Less is more……

Austin Powers style.

If only it was as understated as the French equivalent.

What? By making the representation of the flag of the United Kingdom look more like that of the French Republic, which is exactly what we are seeing here.....?:suspect:

Yes personally, I would lose the Forward fuselage line and just retain the tail scheme on both. And then have “Ghosted” the flag on the fin rather like the light blue on the old BMI scheme, so it was understated but also tasteful. Then put the registration on the cowls.

The French do have the advantage of a simpler National flag ... and I don't mean the white one.

Mpn11 as it is a military aircraft we could look to our past and do simple.

Rudder flash is the wrong way round.

The Union Flag is not suited to being twisted around because its already rather a mess . BA got it right by simplifying it . The US flag is equally useless when modified to fit aviation shapes. Airforce one is classic example of not being drawn into a hideous AA style flag though the flag is so important to Americans

. We are British -we do classy understatement, only an egotistical prat like former PM Johnson would like the livery shown and sadly the less we matter in the world the more we wave the flag. And as is obvious we have far too many problems at home to even consider a foreign policy other than keep our mouths shut and heads down have we have solved our own problems. Theres also the little matter of being so bellicose about Global Britain while advertising a French plane..

Its a bit old school but the 'Transport Command' white top VC 10s looked really stylish back in the day

Embarrassing.

Nothing more to be said

Davef68 14th Dec 2022 21:04

I'd have preferred a straight cheatline and a proper depiction of the Union Flag on the tail. But bearing in mind the Voyager (and A320) scheme it's no surprise

Asturias56 15th Dec 2022 08:40

"sadly the less we matter in the world the more we wave the flag. "

Exactly !!!

The business of Govt Ministers appearing on TV with a forest of flags behind them is another example

Operating on the civil register at the moment, (e.g. non-military aircrew allowed) - plan is to move them across to Mil in a couple of years once DASS etc have been added and they are RAF operated
