The arrival of two new MD80 at Windrose was the occasion for CEO Vladimir Kamenchuk to adapt Ukrainian folk stylistics he always loved on airliners. The airline worked with sketches of Kiev artist
Svetlana Lopukhova with the purpose of popularizing Ukrainian culture abroad.
The two planes were decorated with a mix of colourful modern patterns and illustrations of national folklore.
This second scheme was designed on the grounds of Ukrainian folk song Nese Halya vodu (Несе Галя воду, Halya Carries Water in English).
Storks were added on both sides of the plane (Stork is considered to be the national bird of Ukraine).
