I seem to recall another one of the G-MEDx series being painted all white before it headed for P2F conversion, though can't recall which one without the aid of a cup of tea

Do remember many, many, many, many years ago that a BA plane was retired and it was a lengthy article on Blue Peter where it showed them painting out the then BA logos and name with white paint before delivery for conversion - could maybe find it in the BBC archive with some digging around. Point is, painting to all white is not unheard of

Indeed - I mentioned either here or in the other fleet tracking thread that it had been sold to them last year
