For the Virgin Lovers!!!

When do we get to see the new livery from Virgin in 1/400?
I wonder what other Virgin lovers think of their new livery? Personally I like it.

I Miss the Purple. Probably To The Tune Of 2 Million Dollars A Year Or More In Savings By Reducing The Complexity Of the Livery. Northwest Did It To Save 5 Million.

I don't mind it. Very refined, defined and very 21st Century.
Very similar to Virgin America also.

Outstanding!!!!! Glad the purple is gone. Seems like they took a note from the 744 painted in the "Birthday Girl" livery.

Very nice!

Not a big change, I didn't mind the purple/blueish outline though. I think the Virgin writing on the tail is bigger now too? Not a huge change, not sure about the Thai/LAN/UPS/etc cutoff of the red into grey/silver, but I suppose if they followed the tail line they'd look like a QF bird instead.

I wonder if this will trickle through to Virgin Blue.

I don't quite consider this NEW livery but rather REVISED livery since there's not much changes. But then others or those at VS may have a different viewpoint.
