Project Sunset paint scheme?

James Smith · #**522** 11th October 2019, 05:42 PM

I think that they will paint ZNJ in an anniversary scheme showing a visual history of QANTAS over the past 100 years on the fuselage.

They have already painted a 789 in an aboriginal livery, there are no further retro schemes to use without doubling up (unless they use a TAA/Australian Airlines one!!!

) and they wouldn't promote a One World livery like they have been.

The way that Alan Joyce is talking about the flight crew negotiations they wouldn't paint a Project Sunrise scheme without having a EBA actually signed off. Maybe that would be viable for ZNL in mid 2020 after Project Sunrise is in the bag with agreements and aircraft announcements.

Still a bare metal fueselage (Silver) and V Jet to go.

V Jet with the red cheatline like John Travolta's 707? Mmmm.

Another possibility is if ZNJ is going to do the London to Sydney non stop Project Sunrise Research flight is to promote it on the fuselage.

Maybe called "Longreach" with Project Sunrise (around the world) livery

James is correct. 100th anniversary scheme with the various logos used over the years.

James Smith · #**527** 14th October 2019, 02:57 PM

Thanks Adam. Any idea how ZNJ will look or the date the scheme will be revealed to the masses?

Quote:

ZNI has been named "Kookaburra" not "Longreach"

Maybe QANTAS swapped the names around so that ZNJ could have a name to match the livery, particularly if it is going to fly non-stop from London to Sydney on its delivery flight.

Looks like it has been named "Longreach"

QANTAS has now posted a Media Release on the following URL which includes a number of photos of the details of the livery.

I'd like to see a photo of what is on the starboard side - the same as the side revealed, other historical symbols or the normal QANTAS livery?
