How many times do they insist on changing there colours? I have counted no less than 5 colour schemes in the last 5 years. Is this a Airline with a identity crisis?
It also makes it hard for us photographers to keep up.
The latest scheme is like BA! Well the underside anyway. I have posted a EDI shot from yesterday and It should appear shortly if accepted.

LGW,
Am I missing something?? If you do a search for "SABENA" and "LONDON" there are several pics that come up. Maybe I misunderstood the "Challenge"

Hi there,
this color needed to be changed as all members of the Qualifier Group will receive this blue belly. AOM, Swissair and Sabena have already the blue belly and the others will have to do the same.
If you want to take pictures of Sabena, go to Brussels, I think there should be some

All these color changes might be moot pretty soon. Looks like Sabena might go belly-up unless the unions cave in in the next week or two. Unions are very powerful in Belgium, I believe.

Well... it;s really the colours that change, while theme is more constant. They must have loads of budget going to repainting their fleet.... or do they not even bother to repaint every plane. If that's the case, we could soon see every Sabena plane in its individual outfit .
BTW, Colin, it's really cool to see fresh pics from a local airport being uploaded frequently .

Thanks SashA
I hope you all enjoy the pictures. I like to update them as soon as I have them. Digital is great for that.
On the subject of Sabena, I like Gary thought they did operate out of LHR and LGW. You learn something new everyday.
What about the colours?
Just now we have the Sabena Billboard titles, the Sabena Blue scheme, Sabena Qualifier scheme and the new Sabena Qualifier scheme. Can you keep up with it?

This new Sabena colour is the ugliest ones in the last five years. It realy looks as if it was created 10 years ago. Futhermore makes no sense to create a common Qualiflyer coour sheme, as the the Qualiflyer group won't last much longer as SR got a new president and is now looking for an big alliance.
