2019 built Boeing 737-8 MAX that f/f on the 19th April 2019. It was intended for her to be delivered to Lion Air, Indonesia but that didn't occur, and then the COVID-19 pandemic happened. She was finally delivered on the 9th September 2022 to Batik Air Malaysia as 9M-LRK. After wearing a fairly bland unfinished livery since then, she has recently been repainted in this tasteful livery with "Visit Malaysia - Truly Asia 2026" titles, with a picture of a Proboscis Monkey on this side.
