Virgin Australian planes

Here are a couple of Virgin Australia aircraft which I have photographed recently. The first is their all-white aircraft, a Boeing 737-8FE, VH-VOR. This was photographed a couple of weeks ago, but I've just gotten around the posting it... I'm still not sure why it hasn't been painted into their regular livery. Ideas anyone?

The second is another B737-8FE, VH-YIY. This was photographed earlier today from opposite the runway 16 threshold.

Good to catch up again today, VOR last flew as part of Tiger Air, painted white when returned to Virgin in March 2017.

Likewise, good to catch up with you also.

The recent handover date explains the plain livery. Cheers!
