China-France 50 Years
 | B777-39LER | Air China |
In 1964 France’s General De Gaulle was the first Western World leader to resume diplomatic relations with China, paving the way for a progressive re-establishment of links with many other countries. This special livery commemorated the event. The two sides of the aircraft displayed a landmark of the two countries’ capital cities: the Temple of Heaven (Tian Tan) of Beijing was visible on the port side while the iconic Eiffel Tower could be seen on the starboard side. Note titles were painted in French and Chinese accordingly. Air France also unveiled a special decal for the same event, albeit on an A380.
