Introducing our first ever QantasLink @Airbus A220, fresh out of the paint shop 🎨
The aircraft is set to arrive in Australia before the end of the year and is the first of 29 A220s coming to the Qantas Group as part of its domestic fleet renewal program. The next-generation A220s have double the range of the Boeing 717s they’re gradually replacing, use less fuel, and are capable of flying direct between any two cities or towns in Australia.
The first A220 features a striking livery design and is the sixth aircraft to join Qantas’ Flying Art Series, which has showcased Aboriginal art since 1994’s Wunala Dreaming in partnership with @balarinjidesign.
Around 100 painters worked on the livery for two weeks, which features 20,000 dots and is based on artwork by senior Pitjantjatjara artist Maringka Baker. Telling the Dreaming story of two sisters who travel across remote Australia together, covering vast distances to find their way home, the aircraft is named after the artwork “Minyma Kutjara Tjukurpa - The Two Sisters Creation Story".
An opportunity to work with a leading not-for-profit that is transforming life outcomes for a generation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.
We are seeking a CEO & Head of Development to help steer our organisation through its next phase.

Unlike the failed federal Voice, the government didn't need to alter South Australia's Constitution to create the advisory body.

More than 5.6 million Australians voted “Yes” in last week’s Referendum for the recognition of Indigenous Australians in our Constitution and a “Voice” to Parliament and Government on matters concerning them. Those millions are a good base to build upon for change in the future.
