Why not.

Multiple examples of carriers sporting multiple flag liveries:







I get what you’re saying. Why not? Perhaps because it’s a flag that represents about 2% of the population, whereas the national flag represents everyone. I realise there are other ways of looking at it.
The whole debate around changing the national flag is there are a lot of people who think the flag does not represent everyone, and that's far more than just Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people. To me the current flag says those of British/Anglo Saxon descent are considered a little more "Australian" than the rest.
