Qantas B744 VH-OEJ 2016 Olympic livery

A wader is delighted to see the very iconic "boxing kangaroo" on Qantas' B744 VH-OEJ as it arrives in Sydney, working QF64 flight from Johannesburg, South Africa.

 

The boxing kangaroo made it's first appearance when Alan Bond's 12 metre yacht "Australia II", recorded a sensational come-from-behind upset victory to win the America's Cup series 4-3.

 

The flag has remained a popular Australian sporting flag ever since.
