Photo Comment

When TAA took delivery of its first DC-9 it took the opportunity to revise its jet livery. "The Nation's Jetline" was replaced by "T-Jet" and the previously white painted fin was stripped to bare metal. VH-TJA was the only 727 to receive this livery. It lasted a few months before the fin was given a white base coat.
