Indigenous-painted Qantas 787 ‘Yam Dreaming’ arrives in Alice Springs
Clear skies and Australia’s rugged outback greeted the arrival of Qantas’s fourth Boeing 787- 9, which features a special Indigenous livery inspired by the ‘Yam Dreaming’ artwork of artist Emily Kame Kngwarreye.
The aircraft, VH-ZND, departed Boeing’s final assembly line at Everett a little after 2100 (local time) on February 28. Some 15 and a half hours and almost 7,000nm later, it touched down at Alice Springs Airport a little after 0600 on March 2.
