Trade Air

Croatian charter airline Trade Air unveiled its new livery in 2014, marking the first overhaul of its brand in 20 years. Designed by the Croatian-based design company Endem, the livery represents a merger of two former brands - Trade Air and its subsidiary Sun Adria. The tail features a stylised sun in yellow and orange tones, while the blue symbolises the Adriatic Sea and sky, which runs along the fuselage.

      Thanks man. I prefer the previous logo, the current one looks like it belongs to some pharmaceutical company.
