:pushpin: Why should this livery be added?
This livery should be included in the game, as Air Lanka had previously operated 2 Boeing 747-200s in their fleet, with the aircraft first entering Air Lanka’s service in 1984 after they were leased from Qantas for European and Southeast Asian routes. In 1987, Air Lanka retired their B747-200s from their fleet, as the Qantas lease ended and the aircraft was deemed commercial unviability.

Just saw a post on the history of these liveries, it was shocking to see they changed these good ones to a boring current livery
