The emblem was taken from the Rapp Motorenworke company, BMW's predecessor company. It was combined with the blue and white colours of the Bavarian flag (BMW standing for Bavarian Motor Works, in both German and English). A myth began shortly after its creation that it represented a propellor moving through the sky - in reference to its history of aircraft engine manufacturing. The company adopted this as true for publicity and convenience.
