Very original colour scheme, not a success in my humble opinion: the two colours do not fit, the titles are too centrally located and the whole thing looks like a lesson of geometry. The nicest part is the vodaphone advertisement above the plane!

Prices look very good: 98 EUR for Maastricht/Aachen-Nice and return. 138 EUR for Niederrhein/Dusseldorf-Helsinki and back. With a surprise: all these flights are operated by DutchBird...

They also call Niederrhein Düsseldorf. I thought that a court had forbidden Ryanair to do the same! (too big distance between the airport and the city).

I think it's a horrid livery.

Hey guys,

The livery is not that bad, and in my opinion the colours do fit together. :!: :wink:

Ciao

Looks like they trade paint with Aeroflot!

I think that their livery would have looked nicer if they swaped the colors around so the main color would be blue and the secondary color would be silver. But it still would be a strange livery.

Have you noticed that the registration of the first V-Bird Airbus A320-212 is PH-VAC? Any relation with Sobelair's latest aircraft OO-VAC is purely coincidental.

Or did Aldo V also invest in V-Bird?
