You'd think, they would have wanted to do this earlier on, to help promote the games in "Jolly 'Ole England". Why do the Brit's seem to "jump on the band wagon" so late in the game ... ? They have known about this for at least 4 years, if not more.

How is this "jumping on the bandwagon"?? From what i read, they ran a contest and the winner for the best design was picked last July. I am sure that the contest ran for a number of months before that. Since the games start on July 27, i think it is perfect timing;)

British Airways unveil "Dove" jet

Artist Tracey Emin unveiled yesterday the first of nine British Airways planes specially painted to look like golden doves to mark the London 2012 Olympic Games.
The exterior designs were done by artist-designer Pascal Anson, who was mentored by Emin. The first "Dove" -- an Airbus A319 -- has been painted with gold strokes to represent the feathers. The cockpit has been resprayed to look like a beak, with the body, wings and tail also getting a makeover.
