VLM's adopted new c/s.

Hi all. Was just looking at the news section on Justplanes, and see that VLM have adopted this temporary c/s advitising a Belgian Newspaper.

Quite nice, but I prefer the normal VLM c/s.

Ryanair and BMIbaby have both done it with logojets and advertisements on the tail of aircraft. I don’t think it’s an effective method of advertising though.

That aircraft just looks dreadfully cluttered with text everywhere.

Like comet says, I hope its not a lasting thing!

But lots of airlines advertise. BA has a whole fleet of logo jets. You think advertising a country doesn’t count?

Well I think it is still a bold and smart special colour scheme and keeps to the mature VLM look though I would prefer the normal scheme over it. Anyway, I am just pleased that VLM are re-establishing our Zurich airlink and starting a London City flight at the same time from Guernsey 🙂

Might go looking for that tomorrow. Hopefully VLM might bring it in. I’m sure Comet will have something to say about it 🙂

You’re not wrong there Saab !!:)
I like dream schemes on airliners, but I’m not sure about these advertising things, looks cheap and nasty. I like the current VLM scheme, very smart. Hopefully this is just a one off!!
