Clouseau lol, I guess the Belgian icon will be at least known outside Belgium, who knows clouseau apart from Dutch speaking people from Belgium and Holland, and some French people from Belgium knowing him accidentally like I do because I had to learn one of his song in one of my Dutch classes.

It will probably be something known world wide.

With the recent NASA announcement (Yet Belgian lead AND funded) of the TRAPPIST system and 7 earth sized exoplanets we can add another thing we can be sort of proud of. Maybe the next (5th) logojet could be one with an space theme :-) (And since the Brussels Airlines brand might be gone in a year or so we could call the plane SpaceWings iso Eurowings :mrgreen:)

But for the 4th one I'm guessing for a music themed plane ;)

To sum up about possibilities :
- a music oriented colour scheme
- a Brussels theme with some Of the most famous sights
It seems that the belgian icons planes do receive a warm welcome from the public. One more reason to keep the belgian touch Of this airline alive... Instead Of a generic Eurowings...

Anybody else noticed that SN isn't having a star alliance livery at the moment? As there has been no announcement whatsoever about a new Belgian Icons livery, I get the idea this the new livery could be a star alliance one. It would also be a nice confirmation that at least for now they're remaining a part of the alliance.

Apologies, you're right. I hadn't seen OO-SSC in a while, thought it had been repainted!

OO-SSC isn't used by SN during winter season, because they don't really need to, as there are less flights to be operated ;)

But be reassured: OO-SSC is still in Star Alliance colours. It is just stored somewhere.

Less flights during winter times I guess. Back end of march...

@Bralo20: No one is supposed to post pictures or leak confidential information before the official presentation. By doing so you are very likely violating you employers confidential agreement.

What is the point of spoiling a surprise when there will be dozens of high res pictures in a few hours?

I'm not employed by Brussels Airlines nor affiliated with them. Someone posted the picture on my FB and I just took it over, since it appeared on FB I thought that it was being presented at the moment which apparently it was not. The posts here are deleted and I've deleted my tweet about it. And the original FB post seems to be gone also.

So it wasn't about spoiling a surprise, just being enthousiast when I saw some pics on FB. You should complain with the original poster on FB (which I gave credit btw). ;)

Thanks for your understanding and cooperation, Bralo20.

Brussels Airlines is making sure that there are no leaks before the official presentation and we are happy to comply with the cooperation of our members.

Stay tuned!

Hey,

I used to be a photographer, mostly working for fire, police or justice but also more then once working for parties with certain embargo's applied so I know (and respect) the drill, but when one doesn't know, one cannot comply ;)

Please forgive member Bralo20... needless to say that I always like to read his posts & various reports (quality appreciated)! When you are driven by enthusiasm, it is sometimes hard to retain yourself, especially if you are not informed about confidentiality matters... Bralo20 also seems to be a smart & nice SN follower (among others) ;-)
