Looks like...the Sprint logo:

now that i like. definately unique, yet attractive and professional.
Not bad, but I kind of liked it with a plain tail, it was very sort of understated like a bizjet, and certainly not as flashy as the MaxJet, Eos, or L'Avion brandings.
Thats new to me, I havn't seen it yet so I guess this plane hasn't started service yet? Looking foward to seeing it.
It Reminds me of a bear claw scraping at the tail. :mrgreen:

G-SILC was just painted into Silverjet colors so I'm assuming it hasn't entered service with the airline yet. I'm sure it will turn up at EWR at some point.Quote:

BTW according to a thread on PPRune, the tail art is meant to represent the Union flag (i.e. flag of the UK) in silver.
Confirmed Silver Lining.Quote:

This is very nice and classy. I like the coating on the tail and the smaller logo that makes those parts look like silver.
Alex T,
I was going to type the EXACT things you did until I saw your post. Yes it looks like a Bear or something with large claws and fangs got the plane and tore through the tail. It doesn't look safe to me!
I can see it now.....People calling in about a plane that just took off and is missing part of its tail!

"Silverjet, we sprint across the pond with sporadic loss of service"
Not sure if it's to be taken literally, but someone on the Pprune thread commented that this particular aircraft was for the new Dubai service and will in fact be on display at the upcoming DXB airshow. If that's the case and LC is dedicated to the LTN-DXB sector, we may not see her at EWR after all.
