Qantas to Celebrate Kangaroo Logo Anniversary with Retro Livery
One of Qantas' brand new B737s will receive a retro livery that pays tribute to the airline's 70-year-old iconic kangaroo logo. The airline will take delivery of the &37 in late November.

As for the livery, the current one has been around for ages and still looks good. Now I wish BA would revert to something from the past (I liked the one where they made every tail different) as the current one is a shambles...

Actually, as far as aircraft with kangaroos on the tail go, I much prefer the original Australian Airlines livery. Far more stylish.

The photo is interesting, having Australian and Alitalia next to each other. Was there only 1 terminal then, with split domestic/intl ops? Or a separation not apparent in the photo? I'm always interested in how MEL developed over time.
