Are you sure there is a British College of Arms? I didn't think
there was one. An English College, a Scottish College and a Welsh
College (I believe) and probably and Irish one - but I'm not sure
about a British one.
A few years ago British Airways were under threat of having to
repaint any plane that flew north of the border. They had obtained
permission from the English heralds for the coat of arms on the tail
fin but not from the Scottish ones.
