According to the VS Source, this aircraft has just appeared today in Virgin's new livery.
I thought this was the first A346 due to leave the fleet any time now.
Anybody heard anything?

This post made me so happy (nb note name) but as you will see from pic it's painted white to be returned to airbus or so the rumour goes.

It has been at MAN for a reprint but as the photo confirms, not in to the new VS livery but out of VS colours completely .
IIRC she has now officially left the fleet.

The VS Source info has been updated.
Madam Butterfly last flew passengers for VS on 12th June from Sydney to Hong Kong.
She is to have her seats removed at LGW and then return to Airbus to be used in the A350 certification program.
