The upcoming London Olympics have provided a great opportunity to British Airways to get creative with aircraft liveries. If a few weeks ago the "Dove" was unveiled, it is now the turn of the "Firefly", the Airbus A319 that will fly the Olympic flame from Athens to London.

Firefly's special livery has required 9 days of work and 250 litres of gold, white and yellow paint. Its name was chosen in a competition in which students across the UK participated.
