A sepia-toned glimpse from 1982 captures a family, including a few-month-old boy, captivated by a landed Twin Otter. The aircraft displays the airline's pure red "wau bulan" logo, a contrast to the mirrored red-and-blue swoosh emblem introduced in 1987, which briefly turned entirely blue between 2012 and 2013 before reverting, and both monotone-blue and duotone versions coexisting since 2021.
