Unpainted aircraft landing at LGW 7-April
Hi
On my travels yesterday I saw 3 aircraft (one was I am sure an Airbus) all in white landing at LGW. There were no logos on the tail fin or anything. Were they delivery flights or aircraft midway through a scheme change?
Thanks
Martin

A few candidates. Astraeus have one or two B757s in all white at the moment. But most likely are the A319/320/321s of GBL who are now part of Easyjet and in between colour schemes. Loads of these around!

I saw one of those (A321?) in all-white at ACE a couple of weeks back. BA flight number so presumably one of the last GB Airways flights to Lanzarote before they are repainted in dayglow orange.
Just a thought - but is the EZY colour scheme taking the high-viz requirement at UK airports a little bit too far..? I mean, the thing is quite noticeable already, with anti-collision lights, strobes, landing lights etc. Perhaps they should paint a tabard on the top just to be sure..?

Some are all white, others retain the blue belly.

Yes, I believe flying in the blue-bellied aircraft causes many headaches for the cabin crew.
"So you've been chartered in then?"
"Who do you work for?"
"Ah good, I pay easyJet and they lay on a BA plane."
"Why is it blue?"
"Why is it not orange?"

I thought you was talking about MyTravel Airlines then LOL!
BTW: It might be BA Open skies going for a repaint BTW!, If it's 757s!

Just back from paphos on easygb, white a321's both ways. Interior still GB except for orange headrests(?) and flight safety info and mag. Inflight entertainment was available both ways (selling headsets a la charter),film and tv progs.Easy had also gone to the trouble of creating their own title pages for IFE. Don't know how long this will last though....
