Why not horizontal or vertical stripes? Why not the diamond shapes often used in Bavaria?

Unless there is a documentation of the process of developing the new logo, we can't state definitively where the inspiration came from. I think there is still a good chance it was inspired by a propeller.

came in here to post this. the video/manual have told us nothing about why they picked the blue/white checker pattern to replace the horse. i never was inspired by the black outer circle thinking "wow black outer circle must be a propeller" - the inside white/blue however . . .
