The left remained in full KLM colors.
Why should this livery be added?
VIASA operated 5 Boeing 747-200s, with VIASA only operating 2 B747-200Bs, which were leased from KLM Royal Dutch Airlines in January 1972. This aircraft, registration PH-BUG, donned a unique livery with the right side of the aircraft being painted with VIASA colors and the left remained in KLM colors up until January 1974, when it was returned to KLM and repainted into KLM colors only. The aircraft was nicknamed at the time as the ‘schizophrenic Jumbo’ due to the confusion of the two different liveries.
