TAA T Jets With Colour Themes

To set the record straight VH-TBK B727 was painted in Ayrs Rock on it (The Central Australian) and VH-TJL DC9-30 series was painted with a Barrier Reef theme (Coral Ilsander)
I too saw the DC9 parked in Sydney with genitals painted on the couple that were painted on the tail fin holding hands. Was a great source of amusement for all until head office found out.
What was somewhat politically incorrect was when TBK turned up with a Dingo painted on the top of Ayrs Rock on the side of the fuselarge during the Lindy Chamberlain proceedings.
Just as well TBK was parked at an aerobridge but still again it was somewhat amusing to most.
