Underside Wording
« on: February 24, 2016, 12:23:38 PM »
I was gazing towards the skies yesterday and notice that some other airlines are now following the likes of Emerates and Virgin with some underside wording.

A few others have adopted the idea;

Qatar has it fleet-wide. 

Nippon Cargo have 'NCA' on the belly

Turkish Airlines have some belly-logos on their A330s and B77Ws but it doesn't seem to be consistent across new deliveries.

Aer Lingus' Irish Rugby-liveried EI-DEO has #greenspirit on the belly

SATA have 'The Atlantic and You' on the A320 bellies

Oh!  FlyBE of course :)

This was painted on for the 'Flightfest' Airshow in Dublin.

BCS1 C-FFCO has adopted a rather small and bland belly logo.  Pic courtesy of Bombardier Twitter feed:

Get one of those massive handheld torches farmer have, attach it to your lens, then run away before the Airport Police catch up to you!  ;D ;D

The Virgin Atlantic wording on an A340? That flew over Portrush on the first day of the airshow

Noticed an Austrian B763 streaming over this morning with SERVUS in red on the belly.  Part of their latest livery tweak:

Quote
The Austrian / Bavarian greeting "Servus" means literally "I am your servant" or "at your service"
