Nice touch!

Project 737 is an Air Niugini initiative that will see a Boeing 737 carry special livery commemorating the 70th Anniversary of Kokoda.
Each year Air Niugini transports hundreds of trekkers from Sydney, Brisbane and Cairns to Port Moresby, the capital of Papua New Guinea to commence their Kokoda trekking experience.
For many trekkers their first experience of Papua New Guinea is when they board an Air Niugini flight.
In our own way, Air Niugini has helped put Kokoda on the map.
So now it is time to put the Kokoda map on Air Niugini!
Our Boeing 737 “flying billboard” will carry a map of the Owen Stanley Ranges, where the Kokoda campaign was fought, emblazoned on the side of the aircraft.
The aircraft will create unprecedented awareness for Papua New Guinea and Kokoda as it travels to Sydney, Brisbane and other ports within the Asia/pacific region.
Expected release date of the aircraft is mid-2012, and is subject to final board approvals…but for now, here is the artist’s impression of Air Niugini’s Boeing 737.
