MAS 'Wunala'?

[Philip Argy]

Just caught a glimpse of what I think was an MAS 743 in Wunulla style livery on final approach to 16R - does anyone know more about it?

All 3? I thought there was only 2 Hibiscus schemes? Or do you mean the Heliconia scheme on the 777 too? There was MPD, MPB and MRD. They're all being painted over What are MH thinking?

One of the 744's in Hibiscus livery. 9M-MPD

The estimated fuel savings per a/c once they have removed the speccy colours is RM900,000 (touch over 300K aussie) per year in fuel costs. No brainer
