Dear All
I wonder if anyone could help me. Whilst i was at Heathrow a couple of weeks back i captured the following aircraft
http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=6016923&nseq=20
I flew on VHOT just over 12 months ago and when comparing pictures taken then and now, i noticed there was something missing.
Just below the cockpit windows there is usually a picture of a young lady carrying a british flag – I also havent seen this on any of the other VS fleet.
Just wondered if anyone in the no could explain
Many thanks
Adam

Why not just put a veil on her and then she could be a belly dancer. They don’t complain about that do they!:D

Its missing because a certain religion doesn’t like scantily clad women to be seen. So to fly into those countries in the middle east they had to remove said women from there aircraft .

Shame, looks quite bare without it, or something to fill the space again.

When are Virgin going to have the rest of their a/c in their newest livery?

Well, you are right, it was there and now it isn’t, maybe it got washed off or maybe going to replace it with a new one?
