It seems odd that the tail wasn't pre-painted. Was it not ? Sometimes, the tail is painted but veiled to stage some upcoming company event. |

The tail is indeed pre painted, if you look very closely you can make out the Virgin logo (weirdly enough it looks darker than the rest of the tail, though I don't know if that's just an effect of the white covering). It's the same on their first A350. I might use Photoshop to make it more obvious when I have a bit of time later in the day. |

I had to contort myself and lean my monitor at a very odd angle to see the Virgin logo. they did a wonderful job of masking the entire rudder assembly in white plastic covering. |

Those red engines, while hot, are such a tease. I want to see the damn thing painted already!
Also, I for the life of me cannot see the Virgin logo on the tail despite what others claim.
