'All Black' for ANZ

Air New Zealand has finally succumbed to the temptation of painting its aircraft in the traditional national rugby colour of 'All Black'.  In fact the brand new Airbus A320 will not arrive until next January, the airline unveiling the new colour scheme last week. 

The unique livery is complete with a silver fern motif and Koru on its tail.  Air New Zealand's sponsorship of the New Zealand Rugby Football union, including the All Blacks, enters its 17th year in 2011.  Only a single aircraft will be painted in the special black livery. www.airnz.co.nz
