The story

VG Airlines was founded in 2001 to operate flights from Belgium to North America in the wake of Sabena's bankruptcy. The airline was renamed Delsey Airlines, (named after Delsey Suitcases) but it ceased operations on November 5. The pencil dark and light grey aircraft livery design with the feathered Belgian flag on the tailfin of VG Airlines was created by Lila Design in the Netherlands as well as the Delsey Airlines aircraft paint concept.
