VH-X4A A220-371 QantasLink (opb National Jet Systems) [+] 2024-

The sixth aborigene livery for Qantas is also the result of partnership with Balarinji Design Studios; the brand new aircraft was delivered to National Jet Systems to be operated for QantasLink on December 16, 2023. The design is based on a 2018 200 x 243.5 cm artwork by renowned artist Maringka Baker from the Pitjantjatjara tribe established in the Central Australian desert (the author lives in the remote community of Kanpi in far north west South Australia).

The green design tells the Dreaming story of two sisters who traverse remote Australia together, covering vast distances to find their way home. The artwork name - Minyma Kutjara Tjukurpa – means The Two Sisters Creation Story. The livery is an intricate work made from over 20,000 dots and showing the artist's deep spiritual connection to her Country.
