B-3019 CRJ-200ER China Yunnan » China Eastern Yunnan 2002-13

China Yunnan's 6 CRJs were known as the "Little Peacock" (小孔雀) CRJs, with a small peacock mascot visible just under the cockpit windows. All 6 were delivered in unique liveries featuring Yunnan flowers, plants and landscapes. In a rather unusual way, the special part of the scheme was kept while the aircraft gained the MU livery after China Yunnan was integrated into China Eastern.

This third scheme featured Camellia, the city flower of Kunming, the capital of Yunnan. The species has a history of planting of over 1,000 years, with more than 130 species in Yunnan.
