A+ logo duplication

What do a Romanian pharmaceutical company and a private luxury jet arm of United Airlines have in common? Their logo. Dada dada tips us off to these logo twins. The Avolar logo (on the right) was created in 2001 by Landor while Antibiotice's logo (on the left) was created in 2005 by Grapefruit. My guess is that this is not an instance of stealing, but more along the lines of brainsync just due to the numbers of "A+" logos out there, not to mention that probably 80% of those come from companies with names like "A+ Window Cleaning", etc.

Antibiotice:

Avolar:

The identity, a clean modern A+, was designed to represent Avolar’s commitment to uphold a new standard—both within this industry and beyond.
