EXCLUSIVE! Sneek peek - The UK Government's repainted 'Brexit Jet' RAF A330, tail design revealed!

The aircraft, registration ZZ336 (G-VYGG) went in to the hangar on 9 June 2020,
reappearing days later displaying its majestic livery comprising a stylised Union Jack
- representing the countries that make up the United Kingdom.


The aircraft will be used to fly the government officials, trade delegates, VIP’s and members of the Royal Family
on visits across the globe as the UK embarks on a new chapter in its history,
having left the European Union.
...and the Daily Fail also has some images...

Truly miss the VC-10. I know it was too old and expensive to keep it in service just for VIP transportation, but it really fit the British style and heritage. It was like arriving at the party in a classic Rolls Royce.
