Lotus Jet

Post by WhisperJet »

But I just like what Mr. Tony does for the Lotus brand. And as he's an airline owner as well - here comes the F1 jet... ;)

Hmmm... okay, so it's not your taste... :lol:

It's actually the livery of the racing cars. And if I think away the crappy logo-salad, I pretty much like it actually.
I would want it on a different aircraft but that's another story...

:lol: :lol: definitely!

If I'd own the team I'd buy something slender, a VC10 or a 727 and paint it black and gold, JPS-Stlye.
