& - Boeing 737-800

Airline: &fly dba & Airlines
Aircraft: Boeing 737-800
Livery: 2001-Present

& is a low-cost carrier based in the United Kingdom. Founded in the mid 1990s as the low-cost market in Europe began to grow, & rapidly grew for the later half of the 1990s only to declare bankruptcy in 2001 following the worldwide downturn in air travel. & merged with the larger LCC gofly, but was the nominal survivor of the merger as the combined airline chose to retain the & brand. The new & eventually recovered and had become the largest LCC in Europe by 2013, serving nearly 200 destinations with a fleet of nearly 400 Boeing 737NG aircraft. & relies heavily on the motif of choice for the consumer and plays on the term & in its advertising. Some of the airline's aircraft are also named, usually with reference to the taglines carried on the sides.

I originally planned to do a lot more with this, but since this has been sitting in my folder for nearly a year now I figure I may as well post what I have.
